Say goodbye to the Warmest Decade Ever.

According to this article: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091208/ap_on_sc/climate

In some areas — parts of Africa and Central Asia — this will probably be the warmest year, but overall 2009 "is likely to be about the fifth-warmest year on record," said Michel Jarraud, secretary-general of the World Meteorological Organization.

The decade 2000-2009 "is very likely to be the warmest on record, warmer than the 1990s, than the 1980s and so on," Jarraud said at a news conference, holding up a chart with a temperature curve pointing upward.

We already hit the point of no return. The only thing left for us to do now is drastically change our carbon usage to bring the number from 6° to 2°. But no matter what happens, Global Warming is here. NOW...
