The argument to say that global warming is not caused by carbon dioxide emissions, that it's not a problem, that it's a cyclic phenomenon, and that there is nothing we can do about it is partly headed by people like those who wrote this website:
http://www.biocab.org/Discrepancies.html
The content of the website, and many others, is fed by data provided by some departments of NASA, although the official position of NASA is the same as the NOAA.
Conversely, the argument that global warming and climate change is a problem, caused by human activity, and that we can reverse it, is headed by celebrities like Al Gore in his Inconvenient Truth presentations. The evidence to support his argument is supplied by both NASA and NOAA, among others, but the material is specifically selected to have the greatest impact on the viewer. This selectivity therefore gives the viewer an unfair and unbalanced snapshot of the problem, or does it? I ask you ... Who do we believe? Can both be right?
