<One suspected cause is rising temperatures, possibly linked to the buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, according to a statement released by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the American Geophysical Union and Boston University. >

If it's true, it's due to more CO2, not more heat. The earth is not measurably warmer. But there IS a lot more CO2 in the air than previously and CO2 is plant food. Crop production will be up.

The Greenhouse Effect is good for people, contrary to what wacko greenies think. Recycling of dead plants and animals back to life from oil wells and coal mines is a GOOD thing. The more the merrier. Life is good. Cemeteries are not. Carbon has been buried for too many eons already.

Greenhouse farmers burn carbon to enrich CO2 levels in their greenhouses and to warm them. That feeds the plants and keeps their chemical reactions burbling along happily. Chemical reactions are what plants are [in case some readers think chemicals and plants should not be mixed].

Hmmm, on reflection, they claim spring is arriving early. Spring is not a function of CO2 - it depends on light and heat. So maybe it is warmer in those areas. Spring happens fast in Canada, so any change would be easy to see.

On the cellphones causing brain tumours study, that guy's study must be faulty
