Human Activity Warming Earth's Atmosphere - Further Evidence

11/9/04 - The Arctic Climate Impact Assessment, a four-year study of the Arctic climate involving an international team of more than 300 scientists, was released on November 9, 2004. The report establishes evidence of rapid climate change in the Arctic over the last half century and projects much larger changes ahead. Changes to the flora and fauna of the Arctic region have been dramatic, as have the impacts on indigenous peoples. Computer models based on documented trends indicate further acceleration of arctic region ice sheet meltdown causing rising sea levels worldwide, changes in vegetation communities and species extinction. An excellent synopsis of the report can be found at the Union of Concerned Scientists web site.

6/7/05 - U.S. National Academy of Sciences joins 10 other national science academies in calling on world leaders, particularly those of the G8 countries meeting next month in Scotland, to acknowledge that the threat of climate change is clear and increasing, to address its causes, and to prepare for its consequences. statement
