Elder gnomelet asked, "Mama do you have a new Mystery Animal of the Day?"
'Tis a question she asks every day.
"No, not yet," said Mama gnome.
Youngest gnomelet said, "I want to see an animal, Mama."
Young gnomelets are eager to see a Mystery Animal but Mama gnome wants to revisit a topic so important in her heart: Earth Warming, or as humans call it: Global Warming.
Mama gnome hopes to highlight earth warming and appease the gnomelets by this:

According to the 2007 Climate Change Report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change or IPCC
Warming of the climate system is unequivocal.
"This image shows the instrumental record of global average temperatures as compiled by the Climatic Research Unit of the University of East Anglia and the Hadley Centre of the UK Meteorological Office."
Most of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic (human) greenhouse gas concentrations.
Global atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide have increased markedly as a result of human activities since 1750 and now far exceed pre-industrial values over the past 650,000 years
"These basic conclusions have been endorsed by more than 40 scientific societies and academies of science, including all of the national academies of science of the major industrialized countries."
Earth warming is a reality.
Some people do not want to face reality.
But this is what's happening to our planet.
The sooner we all face these facts, these problems, this earth warming,
the sooner we can work on solutions.
Mama gnome would like to end her story today the same way she ended her previous story about Earth Warming.
Once upon a time, there was this beautiful planet. She was called EARTH.

Mama gnome wishes some day, maybe some day,
all humans would come together
and save her.
Go green.
