According to "The Numbers Guy" at the Wall Street Journal, the flap over a tiny error in the calculation of the warmest year by NASA is much ado about nothing.
Even Steve McIntyre, the former mining official behind ClimateAudit who first came across the correction, admits this slight recalculation on NASA’s part in no way disproves global warming.
“The reaction in the right-wing blogosphere is overwrought,” Mr.
McIntyre said. “I certainly haven’t said that this is some kind of
magic bullet that disproves global warming."
NASA scientist Reto Ruedy put it more bluntly, pointing out that both 1934 and l998 were within the margin of error, and calling the controversy "silly."
“This is totally ridiculous,” Mr. Ruedy said. “Lots of noise about noise.”

LA TIMES says:
The first third of the 11th Hour film is nearly as terrifying as any science-fiction film as interviewees describe the Earth as behaving like an infected organism. Humanity is a victim of its own collective intelligence as the very skills that abetted our survival against initially long odds have accelerated our possible demise.
According to the filmmakers, at the heart of the problem is our disconnect from nature, the idea that we are somehow removed from our natural environment. This lack of understanding of the Earth’s interdependent systems has created a convergence of crises, wherein deforestation, soil degradation, the pollution of the air and the ill health of the oceans all bode poorly.
