Warmer still, scientists say, lies ahead.
Through 10 years of global boom and bust, of breakneck change around the planet, of terrorism, war and division, all people everywhere under that warming sun faced one threat together: the buildup of greenhouse gases, the rise in temperatures, the danger of a shifting climate, of drought, weather extremes and encroaching seas, of untold damage to the world humanity has created for itself over millennia.

How dare you question the experts, you, you, denier!
I'd really like to see a link to that information, because I'd like to use it.
“Decade of 2000s was warmest ever, scientists say”
There isn’t one single scientist quoted in the article. I guess they couldn’t find anyone from CRU to open their mouth so they just made it up.
This is 1984. AP is despicable!!
Exactly, 1998 was the last hot year.
These guys are making this stuff up.
I thought it was a picture of the 2012 Republican presidential candidate.

Isn't this the same guy that said that December 2009 is the last chance to save the world from burning up?
I wonder if he'll do hari-kari in January.
How many boxtops did it take for them to pay for their science education?
They have dropped any pretense of truth with this parcel of out-and-out lies.
Amalgamated Propaganda has sealed their fate..
The Age of Lies is Over.
The body may twitch for a bit, but they have ceased to be a news org.
LOL! Idiots, completely

May their url never show up in your history folder.
Come on now, did anyone actually expect them to say the 2000s WERE`NT the hottest decade in history?
LOL! Why is it getting colder earlier now?
Tools in the hands of fools erect edifices on sand and then cry out in alarm when their monuments come tumbling down.
It is those who control the editorial and social content of these sites that is to blame, them antoying woth follies wild those who lead and deceive them, in some instances, buy them off.. nothing new..
sadly tho, the stakes are so high and the costs so immense, they don’t see how their toying with facts will cost us all dearly in the end.. and for what? so some fat arses can cash in their carbon credits and get rich beyond belief.
