    Not to mention that we have little idea about how the equilibrium of our atmosphere actually works. These changes appear to have happened long ago, many times both globally and locally.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:H...Variations.png Even farther in the past, 10^6 + years, there have been many cycles of global cooling and warming. Personally, in my research I've not found anything that necessarily attributes these present changes to our actions, and I am hesitant to just believe some graph w/o seeing why they've made it the way they do; it seems that there are still many other possibilities.


    Anyway to deny that there appears to be a trend towards global warming now would be stupid, whether or not it will continue and for how long is debatable. Blinding ourselves to finding the reason behind it by blaming ourselves w/o sufficient evidence is stupid. If we're going to find the cause and fix the problem, it will almost certainly take more than biasing science towards blaming us, and there are certainly more reliable ways than hoping it is us and somehow stopping people from burning things.
