Another "sick child" article gets a non-alarmist headline

Climate experts' views differ on global warming trend

Whether you want to call the phenomenon climate change or global warming, Environment America Campaign Coordina­tor Michael Despines said the weather is just plain getting hot­ter.

"Throw out the record books because global warming is rais­ing temperatures in Alabama and across the country," he said. "While one or two degrees may not seem like much, just as any parent with a sick child knows, even a small rise in tem­perature can have a big effect."
