Jay: Well, actually, according the NASA's own satellites, during a 10 yr period during the 80s, found only a negligible change (a decrease, in fact) in temperature.
But my real point is that how do we know that global warming is not a natural process. As we've only been recoridng temperautes for 100 years, a minuscule fraction given the Earth's history, we can't scientfically proclaim that global warming in caused by man. If anyhting, it's the "the sky is falling" attitude a lot of people take to the issue, when really it's quite unproven, that I am against. These scientists are relying on unrpoven computer models to predict the future, when they themselves admit reliable models which can predict future temp/CO2 levels will not be around for at least a few years.

Also, read a peition/arguement against the conclusion of global warming that 17,000 scientist signed onto, at

but be warned it is very lengthy
Oh, btw, don't own any CO2 emiting factoires
