Google recently honoured Canadian geologist Joseph Burr Tyrrell by dedicating its Doodle to him.

Arctic sea ice loss in the last 37 year is not due to humans alone.
New research by a Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory scientist and collaborators show that Arctic sea ice loss is enhanced by natural climate fluctuations such as El Niños and La Niñas. With manmade greenhouse gases on top of the natural climate variability, the decrease in sea ice is even more severe than climate models originally estimated.
