Extraterrestrial Warming
Mars has been getting warmer.
Or maybe it's just the fact that the sun is burning brighter than at any point in the past 1000 years.

I know why. Mars failed to sign Kyoto.Michael Malin, president of Malin Space Science Systems, talked about gullies that may have been sculpted recently by liquid water; evidence of ancient seas; and the discovery that the planet's south polar cap of dry ice is losing weight.
"Mars is experiencing global warming," Malin said. "And we don't know why."
