There is absolutly no sound scientific method, model or research that proves man has done anything to cause global warming. Active volcanos put more pollution into the air in one year than the entire history of man kind. The earth heats and cools in natural cycles and there is nothing we can do about it.

Ok, we all know that it rains very little in desert countries like the Middle East for instance. But what is the reason behind it? I know it sounds stupid (and I am no scientist) but even these countries are surrounded by water so shouldn't the intense heat trigger the water cycle?
Thanks.

could the earths magnetic field be subject to damage from the continual use of energy. with a growing electonic age we are increasing more higher powered demands and ever increasing promulgation of energy. these are occurring in centralised areas around the globe. Can this create "un-natural deviation"? Could this leave us exposed to extreme solar activity? one solar storm could destroy us all...
