#1 Considering MARS is warming, I think this warrants a "No shit, Sherlock".

#2 If the Martians had signed Kyoto, it wouldn't be a problem.

I blame Bush's failure to travel back in time in his Halliburton Chronomobile and getting Congress to pass it when it came up for a vote.

We all know the Martians were watching to see which way we'd go.

#4 Looks like somebody might've been dicking around with their grant money and needed to produce a fast answer in a hurry maybe?
"Oh, shit! They want results? Tell 'em... the sun! Yeah, that's it! And park my Mercedes around back where nobody can see it..."

#5 This says are large part of "Global Warming" is not what the rest of the world thinks is 'global warming'. The sun does 10-30% of the temperature rise, a larger percentage than previously thought. The headline should read, "Human Contribution to Global Warming less than Previously Reported"

#10 A truthful headline would read "Solar Heating Causing Some Global Warming. The Cause of The Rest Remains Unknown"

A casual mechanism requires cause precede effect. CO2 levels lag global temperature increases over any significant period and especially the last 150 years the period over which most warming has occured. This is conclusive proof CO2 levels are not the primary driver of climate change.

#11 Solar heating causes all global warming with the minor exception of a few buried isotopes
Is even more accurate.

#12 Here's a test. Turn off the sun and see how long our environmental farting keeps the place warm. Heh.
