The causes of climate change journals
The fact that almost all the planets in our solar system simultaneously experiencing climate change and volatile weather patterns. This does he suggests that these climatic warming is a natural cycle resulting from the changing nature of the sun? Al Gore can we explain this?
 
Current Science & Technology Center: global warming on Mars? A study of the ice caps on Mars may show that the red planet is experiencing a warming trend. If Mars and the Earth is undergoing global warming, then there is perhaps a larger phenomenon that is taking place in the solar system causing changes in their global climates. United Press International: NASA considered a monster storm on Saturn NASA revealed that the Cassini spacecraft discovered a storm like a hurricane in south pole of Saturn, with a diameter of almost 5000 miles, or the equivalent of two-thirds the diameter of Earth.
 
Science Agogo: global warming detected on Triton There should not have a lot of industrial pollution on the surface of the largest moon of Neptune, however, things are warming. "At least since 1989, Triton has undergone a period of global warming," the astronomer James Elliot, professor at Sciences terrestrial, atmospheric and planetary Institute of Technology Massachusetts. "Regarding the percentage is considered a very significant increase".
 
Associated Press: a study reveals that the sun is warming solar radiation reaching the Earth are 0036 percent hotter until 1986, when the current solar cycle began, reported a researcher in a study to be published this Friday in a scientific journal. The discovery is based on an analysis of satellites that measure the temperature of the sunlight.
 
London Telegraph: the truth about global warming - the sun is to blame for global warming has finally been explained: the Earth is warming because the sun produces more light than at any time in the last 1000 years, according to new research.
 
The simple reality is that through the ages, the Earth has swung between blithely climates hot, humid and stable in cold climates, dry and windy conditions well before the first barrel of fossil fuel not burned. The changes we are seeing now are just a simple walk in the park compared to the fighting that our planet has been able to endure in the past.

The sun, solely responsible for global warming
Global warming in the Earth's climate that we observe is not due to the rejection of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, but at a particularly high level and a prolonged boom during virtually the entire last century , The intensity of energy transmitted by the Sun, says the researcher.
 
Scientists have collected ice cores from wells dug deep (more than 3 km) in Antarctica and Greenland. After studying these samples, they found that considerable variation content of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and global warming occurred before the industrial era, the total absence of industrial activity of man .
 
"It has been established, thus an increase, even important, the content of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has never preceded a warming climate on Earth, on the contrary, such an increase has always followed a rise in temperature. In other words, even a considerable accumulation of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere does not, practically, an increase of the Earth's temperature, "explains the researcher.
 
According Khabiboullo Abdoussamatov, it proves that increasing the concentration of carbon dioxide that can be observed in the atmosphere is the result mainly of raising the temperature of the Ocean World, due to increased intensity of solar radiation.
 
"We know that raising the temperature of the ocean causes global release into the atmosphere large amounts of carbon dioxide. Hence, the idea, widespread, the crucial role of industrial activity of man in global warming, is due to the fact that we took the consequence for the cause, "says the researcher.
 
Khabiboullo Abdoussamatov also refutes the claim that carbon dioxide in the atmosphere plays a role of "greenhouse glass, allowing the Earth to solar radiation and does not refer in space some infrared rays irradiated by the planet.

The Earth's climate is approaching a "tipping point"
The greenhouse gas, according to research conducted by scientists from NASA and Columbia University Earth Institute, led the climate situation around critical tipping points, meaning potentially dangerous consequences for the planet. From a combination of climate models, satellite data and paleoclimate, researchers conclude that the icecap of Antarctica West, the ice cover of the Arctic, and regions providing fresh water sources and habitat for the species were threatened by global warming continued.
 
The tipping points occur during climate change when the climate reaches a state such that strong reactions from rising are activated by a simple moderate additional warming. The study suggests that global warming of 0.6 ° C over the past 30 years has been caused mainly by increasing the amount of greenhouse gas and an additional change will generate moderate climate probably the disintegration of the icecap of Antarctica West and ice cover of the Arctic.

The disappearance of glaciers Hawaiian
In the collective imagination, the only name is synonymous with Hawaii tropical heat, beaches, tanned surfers, girls in bikinis and shirts bariolées. However, there are nearly 20 millennia, a vast ice cap as the city of Paris extended over the summits of this tropical island in the Pacific. Researchers at the CNRS (1) come to reveal a portion of its history, thus removing a key essential to understand how our planet's climate during the glacial cycles of the Quaternary (2).
 
The history of this ice sheet shows that glaciers Hawaiian have reached their maximum extension between 19 000 and 16 000 years and persisted until 15 000 years, about 3500 meters above sea level. To maintain the glaciers in the tropical latitudes, calculations indicate that this time the atmosphere of the summit of Hawaii was colder by about 7 º C and that these glacial conditions persisted until 15 000 years. While the South Pacific will gradually warmed since 18 000 years, the persistence late (with 3000 years offset) of these glacial conditions in Hawaii suggests a connection air masses large-scale air between the North Atlantic and Central Pacific .

The global climate is warming the Earth for 100 years
The direct measurements of temperature available since 1900 show that the climate of the globe has warmed by 0.7 ° C in a century. This warming is distributed unevenly on the Earth's surface because it is mainly the high latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere who accuse, and it manifests itself mainly by a rise in minimum temperatures locales.
 
The average sea level rose from 15 cm in 100 years, and precipitation regimes are changing locally. The natural water cycle, which steam is the main greenhouse gas (GHG) reacts thus warming.
