You see that thin line of light? That's the edge of the atmospheric skin surrounding our planet. All the climate occurs in that little collection of gases, and that's what we're flooding with greenhouse gas contaminants.

@petergleick I crave the idea that we scientists could convince others (either on the fence or dead-set against reality) by showing them such clear and compelling images and data. Persuasion is slightly better in medicine, but not by much. Makes me feel like we are all Cassandras warning the Aegean fleet of their impending doom.
