For those who think global warming is something made up by Democrats, read this story.

By Alex Kirby
BBC News Online's environment correspondent

A report by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) says global warming is happening, and is probably already affecting the weather.

The report says human activities are at least partly responsible for what is happening to the climate.

It expects more extreme weather as climate change intensifies, and says the costs will outweigh the benefits.

It does not rule out the possibility of fundamental destabilisation of the global climate.

The report, a review of much of the recent literature on climate change, was written for WWF by Pier Velinga and Willem van Verseveld, of the Institute for Environmental Studies at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam.

They write: "We conclude with reasonable confidence that we are now experiencing the first effects of the increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

"A further rise in the concentrations of greenhouse gases will lead to further changes in the global climate."
