Global warming is a serious topic - but I heard a fun explanation of how it occurs on public radio yesterday. Click on the ‘listen’ button on the following page to hear it:
There’s also a video - although the video only covers a portion of the audio broadcast. I think more videos are going to be posted which will cover the rest of it.

1I heard that, too! I thought it was fantastic. Easily the best, in-depth, but entertaining and illuminating scientific explanation of anything I’ve heard recently.
We so desperately need more of that kind of thing, for all sorts of science topics. Good on NPR.

2Yes, wasn’t it awesome? I was listening while I did laundry and it made my laundry a much more fun experience!

6Thanks Stephan - I had heard of the Flying Spaghetti Monster but was unaware that the Pastafarian belief system included anything about global warming until you pointed it out!
