Global Warming On Mars

[Stoner]

Must be man causing it. Can we get Gore on the first spaceship to the red planet? Seems only someone with his vast knowledge and expertise can save Mars from the doomsday Gore predicts from GW.

What's happening on Mars is a good example of one thing: the fact that once an environmental imbalance happens, it tends to propagate itself quickly, creating a positive reinforcement loop that spirals out of control. Even minor changes on the input side cause massive effects (AKA, a minor rise in Earth's temperature is going to have massive devastating effects.)

In terms of it's relationship to Earth's warming, though - there's no connection. The source of Mar's temperature shift is extremely well-known: Mars has an orbit that's far more elliptical than Earth's, and it's currently in a phase that moves it closer to the sun.
