EricTheRed 0 #3 August 27, 2004 Yes, But there have been termites for a long long time. What the report says is Quoteglobal warming in the first half of the 20th century, estimated at 0.2°C above pre-industrial temperatures, "was likely due to natural climate variation", including increased solar activity. But the approximate 0.5°C rise over the second half of the century, most pronounced in the last 30 years, can only be explained when factors related to human activity, such as carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions, are taken into account. They considered the termites apparently.illegible usually Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am simply surprised about the figures itself. Probably, I was expecting a higher average in general. From time to time, I'm engaged with such stuff and so feel a little interested in it.
