Holy Martian crap, Batman!

Our global warming problem has gotten so bad even Mars is warming up!

 

 

 

OK, just kidding.  But it does look as though CO₂ subliming from the Martian ice caps in the Martian spring is causing unexpected levels of erosive activity.

"To see new gullies and other changes in Mars' surface features on a time span of a few years presents us with a more active, dynamic planet than many suspected," said Nasa's Michael Meyer, Nasa's Mars Exploration Program chief scientist.

Mars has been warming up since the 1940's - one more nail in the "man is the cause of all global warming" bullshit.

The solar cycle is a much bigger player - man's role is secondary.
