Global Warming truth or fiction?

Everyday there are several articles on the Internet about Global Warming and it makes one wonder is it really happening or not?

Yes, I believe we are having Global Warming. Whether or not humans are the cause of this is what I have a problem with. You look at most studies and they show a couple hundred years of statistics. Really, a couple hundred years is your proof? If we had been around in the ice age (which we are technically still coming out of) would you blame man kind for it or for the warming that has been occurring since? Do people not realize the Arctic used to be a tropical rain forest?

The Earth changes and yes we have some control over it but once again man is thinking they are greater than this entire planet that has been around for billions of years.

Do I think we need to change?

Yes, but not Global Warming, lets spend the billions being wasted right now on things like recycling, removing real pollutants (not CO2) from our atmosphere, water ways and our soil. Stop blaming every weather pattern, temperature change and anomaly on CO2 (hell in the 70's they predicted we were entering another ice age and to produce more).

What really pisses me off is when people take a disaster (such as the Australian wildfires) and blame it on weather change the same day that hundreds of people are killed while they slept. The worlds scientists (which are paid based on how quickly they can get funding for something) need to grow up and instead of fighting for funding actually spend their time using real science to come up with real solutions.

Remember not everything on the internet you read is the truth.
