SCOTUS to Bush EPA: Regulate Global Warming
The Supreme Court today handed down its opinion in Massachusetts v. EPA, a 5-4 rebuke to the Bush Administration's efforts to resist Congress' demands to do something about global warming.

1. I posted this earlier too but it sunk like a rock.
Such great news that I thought it would be the story of the day. It got lost in wheat gluten, though. :)

6. Very good news. A snippet paragraph follows...
(b) The harms associated with climate change are serious and well recognized. The Government’s own objective assessment of the relevant science and a strong consensus among qualified experts indicate that global warming threatens, inter alia, a precipitate rise in sea levels, severe and irreversible changes to natural ecosystems, a significant reduction in winter snowpack with direct and important economic consequences, and increases in the spread of disease and the ferocity of weather events.
