Business Insider: In over 2,200 peer-reviewed articles about climate change by over 9,000 authors, published between November 2012 and December 2013, just one author and paper rejected human actions as the cause.

Underestimating global warming: gaps in Arctic temperature data lead scientists and public astray

Mongabay: pen question due to large gaps in temperature data across the vast region. Now, a recent study in the Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society finds that not only is the Arctic warming eight times faster than the rest of the planet, but failure to account for temperature gaps has led global datasets to underestimate the rise of temperatures worldwide. Recently, some scientists have noted that the pace of global warming appears to have slowed-while many climate change deniers and media...
