Subject: Re: [Homestead] Global Warming? Apparently not

The planet apparently has been cooling for 10 years, and this one
portion of antarctica has warmed. Global warming is not really an
accurate term if these scientists are right. The question is why this
one area has warmed and not the rest of the planet, clearly though,
this area of the planet has the lowest emissions of green house gas.

There is no doubt that global warming is
real. According to an article in the April 2008
issue of Science, "surface temperatures have
increased 4.5ºF (2.5ºC) in the last 50 years on
the Antarctic Peninsula, the mountainous arm that
trails toward the southern tip of South America."
The question is not is it real; rather, the question is what is causing it.
