Climate change issues can’t be shouted enough — another nasty view of our rapidly changing world: New studies and reports issued this week at a major Earth sciences conference paint one of the bleakest pictures yet of dramatic warming in the Arctic and Antarctica.

(Illustration: Artwork from the UN’s International Children’s Painting Competition, found here). Raindrops and gray — a wet-touch with color for this early-evening Sunday here on California’s north coast, the air all day clipped by some way-brisk wind — reportedly, should be sunny tomorrow, at least that’s what WunderBlog forecasts.
