Global Warming
- Reduced air pollution and increased water evaporation appear to be adding to man-made global warming.
Research presented at a major European science meeting adds to other evidence that cleaner air is letting more solar energy through to the Earth's surface.
Other studies show that increased water vapour in the atmosphere is reinforcing the impact of man-made greenhouse gas emissions.
Scientists suggest both trends may push temperatures higher than believed.
But they say there is an urgent need for further research, particularly at sea.
More research means more money. That's what this whole thing is about. Environment Posted by AlexC at April 7, 2006 4:42 PM
The answer is obviously a hybrid car that expels a lot of smoke. If you love the environment, you'll buy one.

If only we could count on George Clooney and his Hollywierd pals to control their smug outbursts, a general smugginess over the US could be safely maintained. Alas, general smugness will precipitate "I'm more smug" reactions from them.
