UN says global warming is well-nigh irreversible. August 26, 2014 7:48 pm bowser

It’s really too bad many of the conservatives around here didn’t have the guts to stick around and admit they were wrong about this, too.  It’s hard to have much respect for them.

The United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change on Monday sent governments a final draft of its synthesis report, which combines three earlier documents.
