Steve, stop spreading misinformation. I mean, do you just pull this stuff out of the air? Is it deliberate?
"We have not been making very much carbon dioxide for 300 years" - This is just so false I can't even believe it. The CO2 levels have increased by close to 50% in the last 40 years.
"However, there is no credible evidence that it is due to mankind and carbon dioxide." - The IPCC is a credible source - the give a 100s of pages worth of evidence and conclude that there is a good chance that current climate change is partly attributable to Man and CO2 (as well as several other climate forcing gases)
"Some scientist believe, It is coming out of the "Little Ice Age"." - Could you please tell me where this is from - I truly believe that you heard about the little ice age and then just came to the conclusion on your own that we've been warming ever since. Do you think the top climate experts just don't know about the little ice age? Just plumb forgot about it? Show me the scientists who claim this please.

Yes, global warming is in fact happening now. Ice caps are melting and making the water level rise. We must do all we can to stop global warming, or but the time im 40 (Im 13) The whole world will be covered in water. There is a hole in the ozone layer as we speak, but its nothing to worry about if we care about our environment,.

It's not a question if it's happening. Some like to think it's a natural Global Warming, while most scientists say it's related to the Green House Gases being put into our air.

Yes, and while some of it is natural, we are making it much worse by human actions. Think of it this way. Weeds have grown in gardens, flower beds and elsewhere for ever and we have managed them but when we fertilize them too much those weeds can get out of control. The best way to determine the effects of global warming and its dangers is to check sites for ourselves and not repeat the naysayers who still claim that there is no such thing or that mankind is not making it worse. One answer here says that we haven't made carbon dioxide for years but the simple fact of burning fossil fuels is in fact creating carbon dioxide and we can find that with a little research for ourselves. There are still some scientists which claim there is no such thing but for each of those there are hundreds of other scientists which see the danger and are trying to warn us, so now it is a question of whether we are willing to listen

It is true that the earth has been warming. Some scientist believe, It is coming out of the "Little Ice Age".
However, there is no credible evidence that it is due to mankind and carbon dioxide. We've been coming out of a "Little Ice Age" for 300 years. We have not been making very much carbon dioxide for 300 years. It's been warming up for a long time.
Though, humans are polluting the air and adding carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, but the effect is insignificant.
