Global warming is sketchy at best. Below is a link taking you to a NASA chart showing the temperature change from 1880 to 2005. Since 1880 the earth's temperature has risen less than 7/10 of 1 degree C. See for yourself here: http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/2005/2005cal_fig1.gif
There are numerous charts all over the internet showing the same. The fact that people choose to ignore the facts of these charts shows that they have an agenda to convince the masses of something that really is not happening.
In fact here's a link to a secular scientific article that shows the earth was actually warmer in the past than it is today.
http://www.msu.edu/course/isp/203/raeburn_old/fulltext/class9.pdf
And here's an article from a Harvard University study that says: "Such claims have now been sharply contradicted by the most comprehensive study yet of global temperature over the past 1,000 years. A review of more than 240 scientific studies has shown that today's temperatures are neither the warmest over the past millennium, nor are they producing the most extreme weather - in stark contrast to the claims of the environmentalists.
The review, carried out by a team from Harvard University, examined the findings of studies of so-called "temperature proxies" such as tree rings, ice cores and historical accounts which allow scientists to estimate temperatures prevailing at sites around the world.
The findings prove that the world experienced a Medieval Warm Period between the ninth and 14th centuries with global temperatures significantly higher even than today."

I hope that helps...

The most respected scientific organizations have stated unequivocally that global warming is happening, and people are causing it by burning fossil fuels and cutting down forests. The U.S. National Academy of Sciences, which in 2005 the White House called "the gold standard of objective scientific assessment," issued a joint statement with 10 other National Academies of Science saying "the scientific understanding of climate change is now sufficiently clear to justify nations taking prompt action. It is vital that all nations identify cost-effective steps that they can take now, to contribute to substantial and long-term reduction in net global greenhouse gas emissions."
The only debate in the science community about global warming is about how much and how fast warming will continue as a result of heat-trapping emissions. In the case of global warming, scientists have given a clear warning, and we have more than enough facts to act on.

we are not in the process of global warming, it has already started way before our parents were born. what we need to do now is to find a solution or a way to decrease this problem

We have global warming right now...it not at a critical juncture yet, but when/if it ever get to that point then the effects are irreversible. So we need to take precaustions ASAP!

Yes & No.
The Climate is changing yes
is is not caused by "greenhouse gases" or any other such falicies.
the planet we live on goes throught climate chane cycles on a regular basis. it takes tens of thousands of years for a shift to be noticeable but the do happen.
those who believe in global warming haven't seen the research.

Ok. Yes there is global warming. and yes, it will cool down like it has done 10000000000000 times before

Our government has finally admitted it, in the context of the receding polar caps. You've gotta belive the government, right?

You can bet the farm on that for sure. In other words, yes, most absolutely, we are.Check with Al Gore and his associates if you do not believe me.

We've been 'in the process' since before either of us were born, child.
