Climate Change - Some News from the Front

While the denalists are busy moaning and complaining about everything they can find (why not put that energy into some original research?), scientists have been busy doing actual research:

Top researchers now agree that the world is likely to get stronger but fewer hurricanes in the future because of global warming, seeming to settle a scientific debate on the subject. But they say there's not enough evidence yet to tell whether that effect has already begun.

and...

The seas are slowly being made more acidic by the increasing amounts of carbon dioxide from factories and cars being pumped into the atmosphere and then dissolved in the sea. The likely impact of this acidification worries scientists, because they have found that predicting the exact course of future damage is a tricky process.

Far from the theory of global warming getting weaker - it gets stronger by the day. It's just a pity that the right-wing pundits don't (or don't want) to read the actual science themselves.
