Climate Talks End With Modest Deal on Emissions

This article from the New York Times talks about how delegates at the UN climate change conference approved measures that need to be taken order to slow the emissions of greenhouse gases. An analysis done by NASA shows that 2010 has been the warmest year in the past 130 year period. The high temperatures were a result of man made climate change, and the natural warming of the Pacific Ocean. This year's extreme weather caused the floods in Pakistan and global bleaching of coral reefs.
