Global warming is real.
The idea that we are to blame is completely bogus.
There are very few scientists to accept this proposal who are not being funded in one way or another by government. To say it's not real means your government grant soon goes away. Saying it's real gets you more funding.
Al Gore is a figment of your imagination.
End government funding of scientific research.

Global Warming is it real? Yes
Whats the cause? Many causes...
1. The earth naturally cycles through hot phases and cold phases. These directly correspond to the CO2 levels in the atmosphere. At peaks levels (also highest temperature), CO2 is normally 2 times greater than it's low point. This is the norm. About 5000 years was the natural peak. If you look at the graph you will see instead of going back down it sky rockets up after that. We are at 3 times the low point and 50% higher than the high point would normally be. Since the volcanic activity has actually decreased over all, this points to the only other carbon producer - Man.
2. While CO2 is a direct indicator of Man caused global warming, there is another source of Warming. The Suns output has apparently gone up based on recent reading in the last 3 years. While 3 years isn't a great track record, it's something that can be measured on multiple planets.
So while CO2 output is definitely caused by man and therefore some Global Warming is caused by man, Solar output is also a contributer. While we can't be sure how much of the warming is caused by the sun compared to the heat trapping CO2, we do know the Solar activity should be temporary and the CO2 levels are not.
Effect:
As glacial ice melts both at the polar regions and at higher elevations the ocean will rise. Normal swing between high and low is about 200 feet. However considering the CO2 levels another 100 feet is within the range of possibilities in the next 1000 years. Although just a couple of feet would causes us to lose most costal cities - the Florida Keys, Probably Venice, and Parts of New York City.
Whenever you read an article on this subject ask yourself who is paying them to write the article. Most anti-global warming propaganda is written by money provided from "think tanks" that are funded by Oil companies. The vast majority of scientists believe global warming is man made. Who are you going to believe, thousands of scientist independently coming to the same conclusion or the one or two who are paid to write against the subject by Oil Companies?

Global warming by sun doesn't advance the political agenda of the global warming alarmists. The whole point of the global warming agenda is to change your lifestyle. It's mostly about having the government put more rules and regulations on your life.
I haven't seen the video you're referring to, but it's not hard to see that this whole man made global warming crap is nothing more than an anti-capitalist movement.

Don't you know that humans are causing the global warming detected on Mars? NOT!
In the 1970s, scientists were concerned about "Global Cooling"! One volcano can put more carbon emissions into the atmosphere than all the coal burned by mankind since the start of the Industrial Revolution! The primary purpose of the current hype about global warming has more to do with the agenda of the Communists/Socialists to bring the United States down to the status of Third World nations, since "it is so unfair that America is the world's only Superpower, boo-hoo, boo-hoo!"
Global Warming, if true, won't necessarily be detrimental for Planet Earth. Even if it is harmful, mankind can do little about it! Isn't it a bit ironic that Algore followed up his "Inconvenient Truth" (which is *really* a *lie*) with his "Assault on Reason"?!

Mike Moor is about as factual as the story Bambi.
If you made $50,000 a night to speak as Bill Clinton and Al Gore do, on global warming, would you keep speaking about global warming?
It makes great news print. (Bad news sells)
Ten thousand years ago ,there was 2,000 feet of ice where I live in Washington State. I would say that ice has been melting for a very long time.
Don't worry, the governments will find ways to spend trillions world wide to keep the billionaires happy.
I am disappointed in Al Gore not asking $10,000,000 per night. Isn't Al the all mighty know it all God?
Give me $50,000 each time I open my mouth and I will tell you the earth is heating up----Again and again and I will have Bill Clinton back me up for another $50,000 out of your pocket.

Global warming is a very complicated theory that can both be proven and disproven. It is hard to say which is real. It is true that the temperature of the earth fluctuates , and it may be on the hotter side of the fluctuation cycle.
Global warming experts are also saying that the global warming is cause my greenhouse gasses, one of which is methane. Studies show that cows are producing large quantities of methane which is also drestroying the ozone layer.
I, myself, don't believe in global warming.

Global warming is real. Ice in the North and south regions are melting due to the heating of the earth. Climats will change due to excess of water and the excess water in the ocean can redistribute the climate differently. Toronto in the past winter is really warm when most of the time it's really cold. yes, it's mostly due to mankind that global warming is happening. True, the earth would warm up naturally without mankind's "help" but at a much slower rate. If you look at statistics. temp of the plant increaed 5 degrees per thousand of years. But it have increase 5 degrees in the past centurary or so.

Global warming happens every thousand years, just naturally by the earth moving or whatever.
I don't know the entire reason, but it's not entirely the fault of humankind.
I think hardly any of it is the fault of humankind.
It's just environmentalists that want to ****** about the rest of us.

The sun??? You mean that giant burning mass in the sky? How could it heat the earth? Evil mankind is doing all the damage. Give the earth back to the animals, they know how to take care of it, just ask the dinosaurs!
