From everything I have seen (mostly some news articles), from 2000-2008 the earth warmed dramatically, the past two years the earth has cooled.
I could accept the Earth was warming, but I do not think there is nothing that man can do to accelerate or slow it down. I think the sun's activity was very high (more sunspots than normal) from 2000-2008, but lately the sun is not as active. So, we have cooling now.
I think most of it is cyclical, I think it is a little arrogant to think we as man can control and change the climate.
Just wonder, has anyone read Michael Crichton's State of Fear? I think it is very critical of how most scientists fund their research. Mostly creating fear to get money for their research. Seems like this may have been happening in the whole climategate scandal. I think there is a a whole section of notes referring to how research is funded.
