Mars and Pluto Also Warming, But What About Venus?

"Earth is heating up lately, but so are Mars, Pluto and other worlds in our solar system, leading some scientists to speculate that a change in the sun’s activity is the common thread linking all these baking events," writes Ker Than in LiveScience.com.

In the same article entitled 'Sun Blamed for Warming of Earth and Other Worlds' Benny Peiser, Liverpool John Moores University, is quoted commenting that, “I think it is an intriguing coincidence that warming trends have been observed on a number of very diverse planetary bodies in our solar system. Perhaps this is just a fluke.”

  1. we all know that its extraterrestrials that are causing global warming.
    it is a process of their birth incubation. the aliens need to warm up the earth and the rest of the solar system to help their unborn.
    as we all know alien eggs form the centre pods of dandelins and other chosen agents.
    mars's glaciers are melting to release the newborn from within.
    i can state for all of us that we are equally excited for this to eventually happen. =)
    i can not wait =)

  2. realclimate on the matter.

    "Thus inferring global warming from a 3 Martian year regional trend is unwarranted. The observed regional changes in south polar ice cover are almost certainly due to a regional climate transition, not a global phenomenon, and are demonstrably unrelated to external forcing. There is a slight irony in people rushing to claim that the glacier changes on Mars are a sure sign of global warming, while not being swayed by the much more persuasive analogous phenomena here on Earth..."

    There are eight official planets in the solar system, three dwarf planets, and 130 satellites of planets. So far, I have been told that there is a solar system warming, on the basis of changes on four of these bodies. If there weren't some cooling, and some warming, I'd be surprised. If you can tell me that the majority are warming, I'd be interested. Let me know when you can demonstrate this.
