Put this in your pipe and smoke it until it turns into carbon emissions, climate change deniers.
NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) released a report and stunning visualization last week that demonstrates how warm our Earth has become over the last six decades. Their scientists found that 2013 fell in line with a long-term trend of rising global temperatures.
The average temperature in 2013 was 14.6 C, tying last year with 2009 and 2006 for the seventh warmest year since 1880. The average temperature in 2013 was also 0.6 C warmer than the mid-20th century baseline, according to the report.
