With which political ideology do you identify?

One word answer--are you kidding?
No. I believe the evidence is persuasive--you don't "believe" in science, you test it to see if it is true. So, the actual answer you want is "yes," but your question itself is flawed.
Social-anarcho-democrat, in the sense appropriate to say, Sweden or the U.K.--Socialist: a system wherein government helps correct or mitigate the badness inherent in rampant capitalism; Anarcho: a system where personal freedoms are, on average, summed up by the idea of "Do as ye will, so ye harm none", and democrat: a system where issues of importance are decided by the group, so long as the rights of the minority remain protected.
Let me just add, finally, that it is the attempt to cut things down to one word answers (or even one phrase, or one sentence) that makes compromise and consensus appear impossible. It tricks us into thinking that there are only 2 sides to any issue, and that each side is independent of the other sides.

No. A couple 100 years of hopefully accurated data on a planet that has been spinning around the sun for billions of years is not enough time to establish global warming as a fact caused by humans alone. The earth may be going thru a warm-up cycle like it has in the past.
Anyone remember the 70's? Yeah, the next ice age should have hit us by now.
BTW: I am an conservative but NOT a republican

I don't think they have proved global warming. When I look at weather records for warm days, some of them were set 100 years ago. If we really had global warming wouldn't we be setting records for warm days now? So, A, I am not sure there really is global warming and B, I am not sure it's not a normal process for the earth to go through periods of warmth and cooling down. I do however think we should do much more to lessen our impact on the environment regardless of global warming issues. I consider myself independent.

Global Warming - no
Ideology - independent, middle of the road.

I don't "believe" in anything. I know what the evidence is - global warming is occurring and it is almost certainly because of our actions.
I'm an independent with a strong populist and libertarian streak.
