It's not just our own icecaps we're affecting ;)

Crickey, this is serious, who would have thought we could have such a wide ranging effect?? Something must be done before it's too late.


Incidentally....of all the planets studied by scientists, Mars is the only one known to be inhabited solely by robots....

Robots with a double layer of tin foil hats.

I had to look at my calendar to make sure that it had not crept around to April 1st.

I wouldn't take this news source without a pinch a salt, April 1st or not....does anyone remember/know the old British title 'Sunday Sport'

Is this a bit of BS or not.

Some years ago there was reported a reduction in ice caps and atmospheric temps on various planets. Hard to believe but maybe the CO2 at the poles is a very specific test of solar intensity.

I'll bet funding will be hard to get for such a study!!

There has been warming on several planets, including the now down graded Pluto,all of which was explained away as caused by other things rather than solar variations.

The article states polar cap decrease on Mars is a direct result of man made global warming....;-)

If you rad the paper that started the whole "global warming on Mars" nonsense it says the Southern Martian ice cap is melting because a dust storm in the southern hemisphere coated the ice with darker dust causing its albedo to drop and thus more ice to melt.

not much in the humor dept I see.

We all know a little bit of CO2 goes a long way. Mars has 960,000 parts per million CO2 in its atmosphere and those damn humanoids still melted the ice caps by firing off rockets and running robots on the surface.

At least the robots are powered by environmentally friendly energy sources!

Yeppers, they use the tin foil hats as receivers of that energy. Has created an aluminum shortage on Mars tho, their future is not bright......
