On the actual topic..
I'm of the opinion that global warming does exist, but that it is not entirely man's fault. We certainly didn't help the matter, but our contributions are not the root cause.
One of the things I find most interesting about global warming reports, is that they do not ever mention the suns affect on the temperature of earth. I remember reading an article (and no, I cannot link it as I don't have a link anymore) that explored the possibility that solar flares are helping to contribute to the increase in earths temperature.
Another article suggested that earths core was actually getting hotter as the magma and such that used to spew forth regularly has slowed way down and eruptions are few and far between and that this may also be a contributing factor.
Most of the articles (other than those that blame human beings for 100% of the reason) seem to point out that global warming goes in cycles and that we are overdue for another ice age (an end result of global warming and climate change).

What you know you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it your entire life, that there's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is, but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad.
