Global Warming

NPR's David Baron reports that new preliminary data from measurements of the Earth's temperature in 1995 supports theories that global warming is occurring. According to surface temperature measurements, last year was the warmest on record. Experts caution, however, that it remains unclear how much of the increase may be due to natural variation.
