First off, I am a scientist and specifically a meteorologist majoring in atmospheric science. I get the global warming question often.
The easiest way to explain global warming for me is to think of all the variables in a bell curve format. Highs and lows of all the extremes. For example, if you drew a line from the lowest surface temperatures to the highest surface temperatures and included all the temperatures in between, you would end up with a curved line going up and then again coming back down (much like the high and low temperatures within one day). The same would be true for pressure variables, wind variables, humidity...etc.
When all these curves meet at the highest points, you witness an extreme in warming. And, the same can be said when they meet at the lowest points for cooling. The Earth is constantly moving towards one of these two extremes.
Global warming would be better defined as Global fluctuation, or Global changing. The Earth is a living breathing organism, like humans...and is sustained within a constant changing environment with It's outside influences, or Universe. It adapts, it improvises and it will overcome.
Unfortunately, global warming data can only use the most recent of documented information to form its conclusions. The rest is a scientific guess...which until just over 400 years ago, also concluded that the world was flat.
So, use your common sense about making the world a better place with your contributions. Take a moment to separate recyclable trash...limit your exposure to the Sun...try to minimize harmful things to the Earth (i.e. - trash or toxic wastes). But, most importantly, enjoy the beautiful things the Earth gives you....rather than worry about all the propaganda that is put out there by uninformed money makers. And, definitely don't BUY into the crap.
Peace and enjoy!

dude try more like 5 degrees celsius which has made the polar ice caps reduce in size over 55% its getting hotter and more carbon dioxide is in the air, now im not a whole stop cutting the tress down man chain myself to em kind of guy but at this rate were all screwed in about 20 years the earth will be unable to support lifeforms as scientists say and i dont know about you guys but id like to be older than 50 when i die.

Some glacial ice melting.
Longer growing seasons in the grain belts.
Changes in weather patterns.
Nothing too catastrophic.

We are being conned in to paying excessive taxes because we have no control over the earths temperature its nature not man and its all a big con.
