WORLD SCIENTISTS CONFIRM HUMANS CAUSE GLOBAL WARMING

The Eiffel Tower switched off its 20,000 flashing light bulbs in a
five-minute blackout to call attention to the release of the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Report. This historic
report presented unequivocal conclusions by more than 2,000 scientists
in 150 countries who spent 6 years culling the latest research.

As Dr. Dan Lashof, at NRDC's Climate Center, stated: "This new IPCC
report makes it clear that global warming is here now, and we must
take swift and effective action to stave off the most severe
consequences."

In a related story, a think tank partly funded by Exxon Mobil sent
letters to scientists offering them up to $10,000 to critique the IPCC
report's findings.

A recent report from the Union of Concerned Scientists said Exxon
spent $16 million between 1998 and 2005 funding "organizations that
seek to confuse the public on global warming science."
