What is never said is that water vapor is the most dramatic and potent greenhouse gas. It's effects are millions and millions of times more concentrated. If a cloud passes between you and the Sun you feel the difference. Well behind the cloud you feel the absence of all the Suns heat that is mostly be reflected back into space. On a cloudy night the temperature may drop many degrees less as radiational cooling is dramatically reduced. But those clouds also reflect back the suns heat into space during the day.

On a very clear day recently al frostbite spoke of global warming and that day was the coolest in fifty years.

You might accept the EPA's latest assessment of global warming, but the Bush administration would rather hide their head in the sand. Note that now when you go to the EPA website, global warming is not even listed under topics of discussion,or anywhere else on the main page. If you want to find out information on gw, you must do a search.

White House Deletes Global Warming from EPA Report

Scientific Censorship Continues in Bush Administration

Statement by Dr. Peter C. Frumhoff, director and senior scientist, Global Environment Program

"White House political editors have eliminated an accurate scientific discussion of the impact of global warming in a new state-of-the-environment report issued this week by the Environmental Protection Agency. While it is irresponsible in the extreme, it is not surprising. The Bush administration has consistently and systematically ignored or undercut sound science that runs counter to its political agenda or conflicts with the interests of its allies in the auto, oil, and coal industries.
