L Cooper, believe what you wish, but look at a few things first:
We are entering a period of increased solar activity. This has been proven.
We are in the process of a magnetic field reversal, this has been proven.
We are in a "warm spot" in the current geolocigal "period" and technically are still in an iceage, this has been proven.
None of the above items are in debate at all, they are accepted as fact to the best of our knowledge.
Now lets put a little common sense here.....the earth has been warming slowly for the last 8000 years out of it's glacial iceage.
Sure there's little lows and highs but warming nonetheless.
mangetic field reversal's can take from 2000-15000 years to switch, during which the magnetic fields drop drastically in strength. It's also the thing that protects the earth from the vast majority of "cosmic radiation" and even radiation of many types from our sun.
as mentioned our sun is more active than usual, and as the"power source" for the solar system, this means with less protection, we are goign to get more radiation from all sources including heat.
Now...are we as humans affecting out environment??? most definately. Are there things we could do to affect it less? most definately. Are we a major contributor to our planets weather conditions, and weather cycles??? not a chance in hell.
We can affect small (relitively speaking) areas with smog, poison our lands and waters, kill each other in any number of ways, but to even suggest that we are capable of affecting the total global weather patterns on a long term basis is such an egotistical view that it's laughable.
Is the planet warming? yes, it has happened before, and it will happen again, it's perfectly natrual.
Now you'll bring up the "hole in the ozone layer".
Guess what Einstein, the earth is spinning on it's axis and it isnt perfectly round, no matter what your globe looks like.
it's a little fatter at the equator, and a little squished on both ends. Now when you take a spinning object with liquids or gasses at the poles, because of centifugal action, it makes the atmosphere thincker at the equator and thinner at the poles.
(interesting point they never like to mention, but the mantle and crust are also thinner at the poles, imagine that) Now where is this hole at??? oh yeah the poles....they get bigger and smaller...in cycles...gee just like everything else on the planet.
Maybe it's mother natures way of being a "saftey valve" to either let in more heat/radiation or let it out?
So what is global warming? it's the same thing as the Y2k and any number of other scams. People don't want to know that something is natural and there is nothing they can do about it.
They want to be told they can help, so they can feel better about themselves and what is happening. Thats natural too.
Also natural are the predators, both literal and figurative, who feed and prey off others, whether it's for food or money, or political power, doesnt matter, it's the same principle.
