Sorry, the climate changes and never stops changing. Never has and never will stop changing.

The Ice age ended without man's industrial revolution and it came on without man's industrial revolution.

The Earth does not recognize carbon credits.

If we're concerned about carbon dioxide, plant more plants and trees that turn carbon dioxide to oxygen. Quit using so much wood and paper so the suppliers will cut down less trees, drive less, turn off the lights when you're not using them... pretty much everything our dads said when we were kids ... it's not the end of the world, they just found a way to make money off of it by selling us toxic light bulbs and taxing businesses and us.

So tiring all of the "Chicken Littles" . The sky is not falling, just relax.

Good advice, but I'm crying chicken little with panic in my note. I'm just pointing it out. The planet is cyclical, as you said, but is it possible things are moving at a different pace then may have happened with a more natural nudge. And I agree, the planet will move on its own time with or without us. However, again, with concrete buildings and roads absorbing more heat, their clusters and height changing the regional winds, the removal of forest... it all can't be ignored.

Cluck cluck.

I found it interesting the comparison photographs were from May 1903, and September 2004.

Two TOTALLY different months seasonally. The Sierras in May and in September are COMPLETELY different. It's reporters like that who try to instill fear in people... bad news sells better than good.

I'd prefer and take the article more seriously if they compared apples to apples.
