Re: Four degrees of warming 'likely'
So not necessarily linked to global warming then.

He jested, quaff'd and swore."
They cut me down and I leapt up high
I am the life that'll never, never die.
I'll live in you if you'll live in me -
I am the lord of the dance, said he!
He jested, quaff'd and swore."

And now there was no doubt that the trees were really moving - moving in and out through one another as if in a complicated country dance. ('And I suppose,' thought Lucy, 'when trees dance, it must be a very, very country dance indeed.')

Yes, not good. If only they'd try ten times harder though - they might even get up there with those pesky bankers.lixnaw wrote:EU's 'carbon fat cats' get rich off trading scheme: study

Receiving outrageous surplus CO2 permits through politics has nothing to do with an honest trade.

However, it's the anti-GCC lobby they fund that gave them the political room to demand this. Do you feel like a sucker, yet?

Met Office says 2010 'among hottest on record'
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-11841368
This year is heading to be the hottest or second hottest on record, according to the Met Office.
It says the past 12 months are the warmest recorded by Nasa, and are second in the UK data set, HadCRUT3.
The Met Office says it is very confident that man-made global warming is forcing up temperatures.
