A massive new report published by the federal government on Friday looks at causes of warming climate and concludes that it is mainly caused by humans rather than due to natural causes like solar variability. As you can imagine, there have been a number of stories published in the news describing these results. Here are some of the news stories, most of which also have links to the original published report. Note that if you live in the southeastern US, temperature rises here have been much less than in other parts of the US and the world due to a combination of natural forces like oceanic variability and human-caused changes like reforestation and pollution, but the Southeast has also been warming at a rapid rate since the 1960s.
