Mars, Like Earth, Has Cyclical Ice Ages, Study Says ("Global Warming" On Mars)

"Mars has gone through 40 ice ages during the past five million years that regularly send the planet's permanent ice sheets cascading toward the equator, then melting backward..."

Wow! Melting backward? Global warming occurs on Mars.

Let's send Al Gore to Mars on a one-way ticket so he can lecture those greedy self-serving SUV driving Martians to stop their polluting behavior!

Al Gore will blame Martian global warming on all of those Earth made SUVs now roaming on the red planet...

I wonder if there’s a Martian equivalent of Algore who goes around scolding all the Martians to give up there sandvehicles and ride bicycles, while he flies around Mars in his private rocket.

I guess this is probably not a good time to leak out the super highly classified info that SUV originally meant Solarsystem Universal Varmer (was a joint program with the Germans).

Who would a thought a planet known to not have water would have had 40 Ice Ages, ...except of course that all the ice is now below the surface, and temperatures are 80F in the summer and -200 in the winter at the poles on the surface??? Interesting hypotheses.

Pfft! The Martians have plenty water. Why do you think they built all those canals?

Stupid Earthlings! It is actually we, of the Imperial Order of Mars, who are exporting climate change to your miserable planet! Soon your planet will be hospitable for our invasion.

Video: Here is What is Really Going On in Our Universe

Algore doesn't have a clue. Poor Al is as stupid as a shoe. But that does not mean what's really happening is great news. 'Nuff said.

Our saboteur Al Gore is doing a fine job in paving the way for our invasion of Earth!

No wonder Gore doesn’t think and look human...he is a Martian in earthling’s clothing...

Stuff like this is why Algore is banging his head on that tree.
