Forget Humans, Save the Emperor Penguins

A new study finds Antarctica is melting away at a rate of 36 cubic miles per year, contributing to the gradual rise in sea levels worldwide. While some people might be worried about the flooding of coastal towns and small villages, more importantly, what will happen to the cute baby animals living on Antarctica?

Damn you, global warming... or commend you?

Leave it to G-Dub and his cronies to keep it real:

According to the World Bank, one-third of the world's population already suffers from chronic water shortages... Global warming would mean more condensation and more evaporation, producing more and/or heavier rains. Global warming, therefore, could offer the answer to the water scarcity problem that the Worldwatch Institute has been seeking.

To paraphrase one Rick James, "Denial's a helluva drug."
