Climate Change Science Shows Anthropogenic Origins of Global Warming

The science exploring mans role in global warming is getting stronger. A new study revealed more than two dozen climate “indicators” were revealed in an annual State of the Climate report released which was released on July 10. A related study went further saying man-made global warming is already increasing the likelihood of extreme weather. These are the finding in the State of the Climate 2011 report, published by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the American Meteorological Society (AMS).

More Scientific Support for Anthropogenic Climate Change

There is increasing scientific support for the relationship between human activities, global warming and climate change. The latest research was published on July 10th, 2012. According to an accompanying analysis in the annual State of the Climate report, compiled by nearly 400 scientists from 48 countries and published in the peer-reviewed Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society. 

The report itself remains "consciously conservative" when it comes to attributing the causes of certain weather events to climate change. However, the report’s accompanying analysis titled "Explaining Extreme Events," make the link between human-driven climate change and six selected weather crises in 2011, including the Texas drought of 2011.
