AYYYYYY! We’re back in the Digital Diamond studio and things are starting to heat up...or are they cooling off?! This week the Ish Crew goes in on “Global Warming”, otherwise known as “Climate Change”.

he 2013 Alberta flood, deforestation, sea level changes, melting ice caps, statements and rebuttals...OOOOOO WEEEEE this was a gooder. We discuss the science, the validity of the science, facts versus fiction, the carbon tax and what we can do the help. Everything gets tossed around as we try to come to an agreement on what this all means. This one was one for the ages. Enjoy!

Wikipedia:

Global warming is a long-term rise in the average temperature of the Earth's climate system, an aspect of climate change shown by temperature measurements and by multiple effects of the warming.[2][3] Though earlier geological periods also experienced episodes of warming,[4] the term commonly refers to the observed and continuing increase in average air and ocean temperatures since 1900 caused mainly by emissions of greenhouse gasses in the modern industrial economy.[5] In the modern context the terms global warming and climate change are commonly used interchangeably,[6] but climate change includes both global warming and its effects, such as changes to precipitation and impacts that differ by region.[7][8] Many of the observed warming changes since the 1950s are unprecedented in the instrumental temperature record, and in historical and paleoclimate proxy records of climate change over thousands to millions of years.[2]
