You don't need help. How can you disprove something that has not been proven? Seems like you friends have something to prove first.
As I stated in another answer:
There are two truths about global warming:
if no one was looking for it, no one would know it exists. They only know about it because they have been told about it. To date, there are no deleterious effects from GW that can be responsibly attributed to man.
the "disastrous consequences" of global warming exist ONLY in computer models, which despite any claims to the contrary, have NOT stood up to any scrutiny outside the clique of those whose livelihood depends on it. It is also well-established that these models have not taken all significant parameters into account.
How can anyone believe in something that cannot be perceived and exists solely in an unverifiable computer model?
Anyway if you need some ammo:

Presumably that would be the same elusive evidence that I've been seeking for the past 23 years without success.
The simple fact of the matter is that global warming can't be disproved. There is an overwhelming mountain of evidence that shows it to exist and explains how and why it exists. Any attempt at disproving it has to show why this mountain of evidence is incorrect or at the very least come up with credible alternative explanations. Neither of which are forthcoming.
There are reasons to question global warming and some of the claims made in respect of GW and climate change, there's reasons to question some of the science behind it. This doesn't disprove global warming but calls into play some of the aspects that have been placed in the GW arena.
To give you an example of the problem you're up against. A few years ago ExxonMobil engaged some of the world's top scientists and charged them with trying to disprove global warming - they failed and came up with nothing. If the might of ExxonMobil, all it's resources, and a whole bunch of eminent scientists came up with nothing then I think it's a fair bet that the evidence just doesn't exist. If you do find something then get in touch with ExxonMobil's lobby group, they're now offering $10,000 rewards to scientists, not to disprove global warming but just to take a stand against it. http://environment.guardian.co.uk/print/0,,329703480-121568,00.html

There's no doubt that the climate changes in cycles. The debate is whether or to what extent humans are causing climate change, how they cause it and what they can do about it.
Consider that the climate was warmer in the year 1000 than it was in the year 2000. Then consider that there wasn't a lot of SUVs and coal burning power plants back then. This fact tells us that the planet is quite capable of warming without a lot of help from humans.

Sorry but I have too give you an added reason for global warming not addressed by conservatives or liberals.
The raising of cattle for beef consumption causes more global warming than all of the cars exhaust on this planet. It starts with thousands of sq. miles of tropical rainforest being cut down and burned to raise much of the cattle. Then the amount of methane gas(a global warming gas) that is expelled by cattle. 100 million tons of methane gas a year is expelled by cattle just in the U.S. alone. The amount of water to raise these cattle is beyond belief also. It takes about 20 acres of land a year to supply the protein a person needs by eating beef and over 2500 gallons of water. For a vegetarian it takes 1 acre of land to supply the protein they need for one year and about 40 gallons of water. Stop eating beef and you will be doing more to stop global warming than many other opitions.

Liberals like these?
"Former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich challenged fellow conservatives to stop resisting scientific evidence of global warming"
"Pat Robertson (very conservative Christian leader) 'It is getting hotter and the ice caps are melting and there is a build up of carbon dioxide in the air. We really need to do something on fossil fuels.”
Ford Motor Company CEO William Clay Ford, Jr. "I believe there is now more than enough evidence of climate change to warrant an immediate and comprehensive - but considered - response. Anyone who disagrees is, in my view, still in denial."
"The science of global warming is clear. We know enough to act now. We must act now."
James Rogers, CEO of Charlotte-based Duke Energy.
"Global warming is real, now, and it must be addressed."
Lee Scott, CEO, Wal-Mart Company
The reason these people agree is that all the skeptical arguments you'll get are nonsense, refuted here:

Global warming is not a liberal issue, it's a smart guys issue, regardless of their politics.

Global warming--and its heman origins--are proven fact. Therefore, no one can help you find "evidence" to disprove it--because there is none.
The neocons don't understand this, but NOTHING--not all their rhetoric, not their propaganda, not their pseudo-science--will change those facts one iota.
People like the neocons have been trying to change the facts at least since Galileo. They've never succeeded-and never will. Facts are facts.

My view on global warming is were only doing it to save the human race...mother earth is one tough ***** and she'll kill us before we kill her...but look into companies Gore is invested in...he's part owner in companies that are pushing products to stop global warming...

There is plenty of information out there for you to show them but to be honest it isnt worth your time or effort.

You don't have to prove something doesn't exist. You must prove that something does exist.
