It is a fact world is warming. The debate is what causes the warming and if humans should act to prevent it.

Close.  We may not have a perfect model for how gravity does what it does, but the current model can predict perfectly (i.e. more accurately than our ability to measure deviance) what gravitational behavior will be for a system of objects.  Climate science doesn't even come close to gravity when it comes to precision of the model. 

I'd say that personally I'm more of a skeptic, especially as the past several years have failed to continue the upward climb for temperatures. 

The measured relationship between temperature and CO2 levels in the atmosphere is correlative. but people want to draw causal conclusions from them which is unwise.  That may be the case, but it could also easily be the other way.  Seawater contains loads of dissolved CO2, and how much it can dissolve varies inversely with temperature.  This means that when temperatures rise oceans can't contain as much dissolved CO2, and the excess is released.  Just one plausible scenario.

Bird Flu was a big deal for a reason, it could have easily become the foot and mouth of poultry, luckily farmers were under strict instruction to let people know when a bird was found dead with unknown causes so the few cases in the UK were contained very well. The media never actually lied about it they just thought that each dead flock was the start of the major outbreak as all the papers wanted to be the first on the case, however none of them ended up that one.

The worry still hasnt passed for bird flu the papers just got sick of reporting every little thing about it.

Fact!

I'm not gonna bother arguing with these fanatic religious people that cannot be convinced but I'll say this:

1) People worrying that the North-pole will melt are really stupid: the Law of Archimedes states that Ice that drifts on water and melts DOESN'T cause a rise in waterlevels. Only if Greenland and the South-Pole melt we have a problem! And as we all know, water holds heat better (which is why the Gulfstream creates a really mild habitat in Western Europe compared to, for example East-Canada. Which lies at the same distance from the Northpole). As in; Hot water from the equators goes up along Western Europe and makes for a mild, well lifeable climate. Then turns round, cools down and goes back to the equator as cold water along the Eastcoast of America. In short.

*Note: f the Northpole melts = byebye polarbear... Which saddens me! Seriously!

2) If the Northpole is gone, there is no Ice to melt the water from the Gulfstream, so the Gulfstream will be interupted. Resulting in another Ice-age... It's like a bi-metal, if the temperature gets too hot it short-circuits and the whole cirkel falls apart! = Goodbye mild climate in Europe. And seelevels will fall with 10's of meters.

3) Just look at the raw data. There's WAY more CO2 in the air then EVER in recorded history... And people who say; Blah, we only have 100 years of data. No we haven't! We have like 300.000 years of data. Ice encapses bubbles of air in them which reflect the build-up of the atmosphere! (as in for example 79% N2, 20% O2, 0.02% O3 etc...). So we can look at the number of parts per million (ppm) of CO2 in the air! Which are at their highest in 300.000 years! And it's because of us, just do the math! we pump Billions of metric tons of CO2 in the air a year!

4) For all the people who say it's bullshit! You are naïeve, narrow minded people. The same that all say bleh, I can't make a difference, so I'm just going to consume as much as I can! Narrow-minded I'm calling those! It really saddens me how much of those people there are! I'm guessing more than 80% is like that. And yes, there ARE a lot of dumb people out there! It never seizes to amaze me!

Thanks for reading. I won't respond because I'm not going to argue with people. I tried a few times ago but it always turns into a yes it is/no it isn't... kinda fight! And those hardcore religious fanatics CANNOT, in any way, be convinced! When you think you have them in a corner they always have the argument that It's God's will! And then the quote; Just proof I'm wrong!... And you just simply can't proof their wrong! It's the same as saying; After death you'll be sitting in a ferriswheel. Forever! Go ahead, just proof I'm wrong!

Well, the icecaps ARE melting...arent they?

It is fact and that's been proven, it's the causes of it that are debated. Well, I'd assume it was. But then many factors are to be considered, even down to the fact we haven't had a proper large volcanic eruption in many years and they are commonly known to lower the the earths temperature afterwards.

Correct, recorded temps go back to 1889 in most areas.  Sufficient global temperature recording wasn't started until the 1970's and sufficient ocean temperature recording was not implemented until the 1990's.  So the data for their model is very limited and weak.

I am a strong beiever in global warming(as marketed in the world) being nothing more than a global scandal instituted to aid the largest redistribution of wealth ever.  There is more evidence to support this conspiracy than to support the global warming argument, such as the largest investors in research of global warming are at the forefront of the redistribution of wealth.

Also, huge lie: carbon emitted from automobiles is one of the leading sources of ozone CO2 levels.  It's a total garbage of a lie.  CO2 emitted from vehicles isn't a barrier gas.

Global Warming is a marketed phrase.  It is fictional based off of loose interpretations of real data.  Climate change in relation to the human effect on climate is the scientific question.  Yes the climate is changing, but it is evident that this is a natural cycle of earth.  The question is, to what extent has man impacted this.  It is equally as foolish to say man is responsible for climate change or has not impacted the climate.  When it boils down to it, thereis no feasible way to make a correct analysis of this due to the incredibly small sample size of recorded data and the large natural cycle of Earth's climate.

As people have said, Global Warming IS real. The only debate is whether or not it is man-made or not.
Also, one thing that has always annoyed me is when people see the issue only along party lines. It's far more than a political issue and I wish more people would realize that.

My personal position is that I don't know, and I think it's foolish for people to claim they know. This issue is incredibly complicated and will require much more study until we can say we definitely know whether or not global warming is man made.
I also think it doesn't really matter. We should be doing all we can (within reason) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and save energy.

Speaking of media, where did you find these quotes?

Look, wev'e just released a planned 5% cut by 2020 in Australia. Most people, 55% in one poll believe its not enough, in fact its weak and pathetic. When your proven wrong it will be too late and your children (and yourselves) will have excessive food, energy and secuirity costs to try and deal with the ramifications of drought, water rising and ice melting.

And to those people who are skeptics, if you have children or are thinking of having them consider what the potential impacts could be on their lives.

Its worse than terrorism.

And if you dont know anything about the science, or don't believe what other scientists know either, why don't you look at some mountains yourself. Go up to canada and look at some glaciers. Go to Antarctica or some shit.

If all ice in the Hymillayas melts in the next 40 yrs, as is predicted, over 2 billion people will have insufficient water to grow rice. 2 billion people is a big problem, its not a joke anymore is it.
