Dang! Halliburton has been busy destroying the environment on Pluto? But Pluto isn't even a planet anymore so who cares!

If I remember,
the aliens have a base
way out on Pluto.

They're up to no good.
I believe our only hope
is call Mother Thing . . .

Here's an inconvenient truth: The Plutonians are destroying their planet...

How puzzling.

There's also the NASA News Release: Evidence for Recent Climate Change on Mars,

And the Max Planck Institute's conclusion that "The Sun has been at its strongest over the past 60 years and may now be affecting global temperatures",

And this:

Puzzling.
Baffling.
Who could possbily figure out what this means?

Read more carefully. Pluto is even farther from the sun now. If the sun were causing this, It would have to be much, much hotter.

Ever wonder why the sun's activity runs in cycles? Is the sun causing a solar system warming, or is the sun just a part of an entire system warming?

First the earth, the Mars, now PLUTO!!!!???? Wasn't it enough that we dumped Pluto as a planet, now we're heating it up????

Don't forget, also, there was a story yesterday about the moon's impending disintegration (about 5 billion years from now). If global warming doesn't kill us, we'll suffocate from being buried alive under green cheese!

I kid you not: they have discovered that berylium isotopes correlate to various global climate conditions. They've found that higher concentrations of berylium isotopes correspond to higher global atmospheric temperatures. They've ascertained that berylium isotopes are created through interaction of the atmosphere with solar wind particles. They've found that higher periods of solar activity correspond to higher levels of berylium isotopes.

What's really really puzzling the scientists: they believe that there appears to be some sort of influence of the earth's climate by the sun. What this influence is is not entirely clear and more research needs to be done to pin this baffling issue down.

If you actually read the research paper that broke that revelation: you'd want to grab a stick and beat them over the head while screaming, "DOES UTTERING THE WORDS A HOTTER SUN HAS A SIGNIFICANT INFLUENCE IN WARMING UP THE EARTH'S GLOBAL CLIMATE CAUSE YOU THAT MUCH PAIN? WELL DOES IT???? DOES IT???? HOW DOES THIS FEEL???? FEEL BETTER NOW? WHAT ABOUT NOW? Seriously, I'd feel seriously better after beating them silly with an ugly stick. For sure, but that's just me.

After 5 billion years, it won't be green anymore.

I would have said "decanonized". One way to define a planet is by roster, which is what the IAU did despite their squirrelly explanation. The roster is essentially canonical, not descriptive.

I thought it was Capitalism that caused global warming, not Middle East oil...

Pluto was decanonized? Did they find that Clyde Tombaugh faked the miracles to have it canonized in the first place?

So! The CO2 from cars and trucks is blowing out in space and landing on Pluto! There it's causing global warming!
The only solution is to send Al Gore to Pluto. He'll know how to stop Plutonian warming.

They found St. Christopher giving rides over to Charon, across the river Styx. St. Chistopher was recently decanonized, merely because there is no credible evidence that he ever existed. Picky.

I think your answer is too complicated for the common masses. Driving SUV's is a much simpler explanation. And WE can control that - which makes us feel good and gives us the semblance of some type of power.

I've always maintained that global warming is due to the sun. And I think the shift in Pluto's heat is probably just a heat lag. But - I wonder if there is anything else that can heat up the solar system at various times? As the whole solar system flies around the universe - are there "warm spots" in the pool?
