I believe in it myself.
We have had about 50 degree weather and no snow here in my part of Ohio yet this winter and it's January!

Global warming is really going on. I don't know if anyone else has noticed this, but there used to be four seasons and now it seems there are only two--summer and winter. What happened to spring and fall? It is either freezing or hellishly hot outside all the time anymore. Besides, there was a time when the earth was entirely covered in water, and there was an ice age, so why wouldn't there be global warming? The earth is constantly changing. Human beings have pretty much destroyed the earth. We have caused a great deal of the depletion of the ozone layer, which in turn results in global warming, which over the course of many many years will cause the polar icecaps to melt, covering the earth in water once again. Then most species will become extinct and the earth will eventually recycle itself, as it had always done.

The current warm weather we are experiencing has less to do with Global Warming and more to do with El Nino. Even under the highest warming model average temperatures will rise by 6-7 degrees over the next century, so having temperatures 10-15 degrees above normal in one year has little to do with global warming.
The news media routinely does a horrible, piss poor job of informing the public on science and research, therefore the environmental movement has a better way of getting their "OMG GLOBAL WARMING IS GOING TO KILL US ALL" message out.
BTW, the ozone hole and global warming have nothing to do with each other, they are seperate issues.

There is no doubt that we are currently experiencing a weather phenomenon. However, too many people automatically assume this is because of human activity. Mostly because that is what they have been told. The truth is, the earth has experienced several ice ages that predate human industrial activity. What do you blame those weather changes on. I think global warming is a lot of media hype and book selling fodder served up by arrogant bipeds.

Please do not post if you are not scholarly about this process. I just want to know why people have not educated themselves on this topic but yet continue to complain that this year is warmer due to global warming, and that hurricane was stronger due to global warming, and that I dont have any snow due to global warming when in fact that if they read about the weather just a little bit they would know that the synoptic scale weather pattern has kept a primarily zonal pattern across the US since early December which his kept most artic air masses bottled up at the poles. ITS NOT GLOBAL WARMING PEOPLE!!! ITS THE WEATHER PATTERN!!! PLEASE DO NOT ASSOCIATE SMALL SCALE EVENTS WITH GLOBAL WARMING, YOU ARE BEING IGNORANT AND MISLEADING PEOPLE. YOU PEOPLE ARE THE TYPE OF PEOPLE THAT ARE IN THE GORVERNMENT. THE ONES WHO DO NOT LISTEN!!! EDUCATE YOURSELF BEFORE SAYING OHH IT MUST BE GLOBAL WARMING!!!

Better yet, how many people believe in global dimming? Thats another phenomenon that many scientists advocate and it is the nemesis of global warming. So which one is occuring?

Not me!
It's probably just normal weather patterns.
Kind of like a roller coaster. The temp. goes up and down and up and down.
I bet that in years to come, the earth's overall temp. will drop. Then all the scientists and their theories will look dumb.
