   英国每日邮报:我们经常说由于人类因为缺少环保意识才导致了地球变暖,但是,事实真的是这样吗?目前这还是个具有争议的话题.

  全球变暖谁的错?
  Daily Mail: Was the Earth in a period of global warming or cooling before the 20th century?
  Attempting to answer this question has thrown up a conundrum1 for scientists, with some studies showing a warming trend, while others suggesting it cooled until humans intervened2.
  Now a new study hopes to settle the issue by arguing that data points to the fact that Earth's climate has been warming over the past 10,000 years - long before human activity is thought to have changed the climate.
  It argues that previous research that showed a cooling trend was wrong because it used contradictory3 ice core4 data.
