The suggestion that the shrinking of Mars polar cap may result from natural occurances or from a general increase in energy output is rejected by many critics of the U.S. environmental policy. These critics point to the fact that such polar melting was not noted before the landing of U.S. exploration vehicles, and thus may well have been the triggering mechanism. Such global warming on Mars threatens the fragile ecosystem and may endanger all Martian life (assuming there is any).

"NASA denies that the Mars rovers have contributed to greenhouse gases in the Martian atomosphere which is leading to a pattern of global warming as seen on Earth."

Well well, the same mechanisms that warm Mars could be warming Earth. Say, ohh,...THE SUN!

Nah, cant be. Variable energy output from the sun over thousands of years?

Why thats...thats.. just crazy talk!

Of course, there's the (I think) wild idea from one Richard C. Hoagland suggesting that because our Solar System is moving through a certain point in hyperdimensional space that all of the planets are warming up....

I fervently believe we should send all our most prominent environmentalists to Mars to launch a 10 year investigation. Perhaps longer.

I figured it out. Because of the global warming here on earth, it is increasing the amount of solar radiation hitting other planets.

And, it's Bush's fault.

Well, Bush should just push the Sun back a few feet to moderate temperature. Sheesh...he's the President of the United States. He should be able to do that. John Kerry would have done that, and he would have done it better!
