Did I see a (reliable) graph of solar activity being closely followed by the Earth's temperature, or am I imagining?

 

Imagining. Solar activity is one of the things that have been ruled out as a major cause.

 

I promise you all the money in the world, without question, the #1 factor contributing to global warming is the sun. No question.

Without it, we would be a lot colder ;)

But I of course meant for the modern rise in temperature =O

@Kasz. Isn't that exactly the same solution as the ones proposed for anthropogenic global warming - reduce the greenhouse gas in the atmosphere (whether through cutting emissions or through removing stuff already there)?

 

Indeed.  The difference is that people who support anthropogenic global warming greatly underestimate the amount of greenhouse gases that are produced natuarally.

At one point it's even been suggested that manmade greenhouse gases are somehow "worse" then regular gases despite having the same atomic structure to explain this.

People just don't talk about it anymore though.

I think of it like being on a sinking ship.  Sure you could of left the faucet on... and that is going to stop the bathroom from flooding... but your ignoring the huge hole in the wall.
