Scientists have measured greenhouse gases in the atmosphere steadily increasing over recent decades. The more that human activities emit, the more we find around us.

It is really sad that an institution dedicated to science should be forced to prostitiute itself with such amazing claptrap.

Yes, CO2 went up so did the temperature...for a while. CO2 is still going up...the temperature isn't.

Cut the bogus crap, Judy! Temperatures DID go up from the 1970s to 2005, due to increases in CO2, and then dropped slightly after 2005 due to the drop in solar activity which offset the higher CO2 amounts. Even you have admitted that!

If not for the CO2, we should already be heading for another Little Ice Age, but we are not even down to the 1970s levels yet.

It is ExxonMobile and the denialist groups it funds that prostitute science!
