Once again, and with more certainty than ever, the IPCC report concludes that global warming is unequivocal and it is extremely likely that we are causing it. How likely is "extremely likely"? According to the IPCC, we can be 95-100 per cent certain that humans are causing...

Inter Press Service: Amidst rumours that global warming has slowed over the past 15 years, the new report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) states that each of the last three decades has been warmer than any preceding decade since 1850. The warming of the climate is "unequivocal," says the IPCC. "The atmosphere and ocean have warmed, the amounts of snow and ice have diminished, sea level has risen, and the concentrations of greenhouse gases have increased." The IPCC Working Group 1 Fifth...
