This article reminds us that the theory of Global Warming is a worldwide 'hot button' topic.  The article I have linked to shows the worldwide tendency of media and science to be far from objective in understanding what's really happening with our environment.

I just don't get how willing many educated people are to disregard all facts that conflict with theories popularized by liberal extremists.
