"Washington (AFP) - Average US temperatures have risen dramatically and fast, with recent decades the warmest of the past 1,500 years, according to a draft federal government report cited by The New York Times on Tuesday."
"Americans are feeling the effects of climate change right now," said the report by 13 federal agencies not yet released or approved by President Donald Trump's administration.
"The report "directly contradicts claims by President Trump and members of his cabinet who say that the human contribution to climate change is uncertain and that the ability to predict the effects is limited," the Times said."

I mean is it really that hard to grasp, that there are billions of us now polluting the earth, and that just maybe doing so is causing harm? Is it really that unreasonable to think that?

On the other hand, I just moved outside of the city... and every morning on my commute in, I notice about 2-3 miles outside of the city it suddenly gets warm- enough so that I need to put on the AC that I didn't need for the previous 20 miles.
Maybe it's just the lack of trees, and surplus of black rooftops, driveways, roads, and parking lots sucking up the sun.

Some will argue, because false #s were reported by some, or that this is all just hype. I disagree.

Seeing as we are the 2nd largest green house gas producing country on the planet, I would think we would be at least taking precautions, that perhaps maybe there is something to this global warming thing.
Here is the link to the article also a link about Climate Scientist those for and against global warming.

I haven't heard Trump saying anything other than he doesn't believe in it, so I guess the rest there has come from someone departmental who needed to add a little to it for credibility of some sort.
Anyway, I hope those maps from satellites help you understand that there is not at the moment a trend in the arctic toward warming. It is currently toward cooling.
