Phil Plait recently posted an article that once again confirms Global Warming and takes a little bit of time to call out deniers.

He cites a large NOAA Study, which includes data from 300 scientists with 160 research groups in 48 countries. The outcome is clear, The Earth has been warming for more than 50 years.  But this isn't new evidence. I take that back. The evidence and the reports are new. It's the OUTCOME that isn't new. New reports pile up and all come to the same conclusion. Global Warming is real.

Of course, deniers will deny...
But to deny means to ignore the evidence, or twist it, spin it, cherry-pick it, distort it. Studies like the one above are critical, but they will be dismissed by the deniers and their acolytes. We need to keep hammering away at the deniers, and make sure we get as much press — more — than they do. Because this is real, it’s happening, and all the denialists with their fingers in their ears cannot change that. All they can do at this point is make it worse.
