What does this even matter?  Scientists can't even agree whether it's happening because of factors on this planet, whether it's the Earth coming out of an Ice Age,  or a slew of other factors?  Beyond that point, what is Ron Paul or any singular person supposed to do about this?   You have developing nations across the globe feeling success of industry and having more and more gas powered vehicles and power plants being built.   This is completely irrelevant.  

 

You have got to be kidding me.

Recently CERN was (finally) able to run their CLOUD experiment which, while the results are early, could explain how sunspot activity impacts global temperature patterns through influencing cloud formation. Based on previous estimates, this could explain the majority of the warming that occurred over the past half century.

As any person who understands science, science is not a popularity contest and consensus (even fake consensus spread by groups of activists) is meaningless.
