Have you seen these articles on global warming?


As you may be well aware of,  'global warming' is making the news more and more frequently. Here is a sample of what we have seen in 2016:

  • Slate, March 2016: NASA confirms that February 2016 was not only the most unusually warm month ever measured globally, at 1.35 degrees Celsius above the long-term average—it was more than 0.2 degrees Celsius warmer than the previously most unusually warm month ever measured: January 2016.  [Let this one sink in for a minute, will you?]
  • Independent, Oct 2016:Global warming doubles size of forest fires in US West, NASA [again!] study finds.

  • xkcd: A timeline of earth's average temperature... for a perspective.
 
If you think there are other good articles [more data, the better] on this topic, please add them in the comments section.
