Global Cooling... No really...
I was shocked (not really, more happily amused) to see reports like this more and more and finally sort of a compilation. Here's the source and followed is important snips...

"Twelve-month long drop in world temperatures wipes out a century of warming"
Over the past year, anecdotal evidence for a cooling planet has exploded. China has its coldest winter in 100 years. Baghdad sees its first snow in all recorded history. North America has the most snowcover in 50 years, with places like Wisconsin the highest since record-keeping began. Record levels of Antarctic sea ice, record cold in Minnesota, Texas, Florida, Mexico, Australia, Iran, Greece, South Africa, Greenland, Argentina, Chile -- the list goes on and on.
No more than anecdotal evidence, to be sure. But now, that evidence has been supplanted by hard scientific fact. All four major global temperature tracking outlets (Hadley, NASA's GISS, UAH, RSS) have released updated data. All show that over the past year, global temperatures have dropped precipitously.
...most of the warming recorded over the past 100 years (, wiped out) All in one year's time.
... no big deal, nothing we can do about it. Just thought it was such a shame that now numerous big name organizations around the world are releasing evidence erasing the last 100 years of warming tied up in the current political hysteria.
