Global Warming/Cooling Updates

ANN ARBOR, MI–This has been the snowiest winter ever in the Ann Arbor area, or at least since 1880 when record-keeping started. And it’s not over yet. That’s because we’re not even into April, a month that normally averages almost 2.5 inches of that pesky white stuff.
NATIONAL PUBLIC RADIO–80 to 90 percent of global warming involves heating up ocean waters. They hold much more heat than the atmosphere can. Some 3,000 scientific robots that are plying the ocean have sent home a puzzling message. These diving instruments suggest that the oceans have not warmed up at all over the past four or five years. Since the system was fully deployed in 2003, it has recorded no warming of the global oceans. “There has been a very slight cooling, but not anything really significant.”
