This NBC News report caught my attention for the rare blunt connection of the record warm March we just exited to "Climate Change". Typically (and even in this story to some degree), news stories typically try to avoid making a "matter of fact" connection between record heat and Climate Change, so this story really caught my attention.
Its funny how global warming people say you can't focus on increased temperatures in a short amount of time like a month and attribute it to global warming... and then go on to say it is due to global warming...
Just keep repeating, it's just a myth... it's just a myth...
Nobody thinks it's a myth. The myth is that humans are responsible for it. Did humans cause the 2012 alignment and soon to come pole flip too? How about the oblonged Earth's orbit? How about the tilt on it's axis? Humans caused all those too?

CO2 is a green house gas. We know that. The notion that people dumping billions of tons of CO2 into the atmosphere every years and it has no effect, is a bit too much to accept.

If it's a myth or not really isn't the point for me. I have seen only too much environmental distruction in my lifetime. Anything we can do to perserve the environment, {within reason} is fine with me. Here in Ontario Canada we are shutting down all of our coal burning generating stations. If it costs me a few more dollars per month for my power then that's a price I'm willing to pay. Long before Obama ever came to power I advocate that a new energy economy could employ millions of people. Another aspect of it is, why wait until it's forced upon us as it surely will sometime in the future.
A funny thing about the closing of Ontario's coal burners is that a huge % of the horrible pollution they emit blows straight to NY and Michigan and ruins their air and water and not so much our own. A large amount of the coal burnt comes from Appalachia and if you are not aware of the environmental disaster that creates then you truely live in Lala land.
Actually both sides of this debate consistently use colder or warmer then average temperature intervals to "prove" their point and then deride the other side for doing the same thing. And in my experience, the media has been very quick to attribute climate change (or El Nino/La Nina) to any non-average weather events.

You don't have to repeat anything. Open your eyes. Use your senses. Some periods of time are warm... some are cool. Arctic glaciers melt in the summer, and rebuild in the winter.
Look at the local weather report when they go through the current temperatures. Temperatures in the populated cities are usually slightly warmer than the suburbs. That is your human effect on the weather.
