The only scientific fact they have is that the Earth's surface temperature has increased by 0.5+ degrees since 1930 in the northern equatorial regions.

So you can say global warming is a fact but what does the term global warming mean? That is the question, if you find it means that based upon only scientific fact the temperature has risen around the globe in this region then its true, there is global warming.

Everything else is speculative, has the rest of the globe experienced similar rises in temperature?

What is causing it?

If the global climate models show the Temperature is going to increase what can we do about it. My position is nothing, so therefore if you believe the radical climate forecasts government should be doing something other than trying to reduce so called green house gases.

If you haven't heard, even the EU Space Admin said if the Kyoto treaty was implemented with every country in the world participating it would still fail to stop the projected rise in temperature predicted in these models.

I see only 2 ways to alter Earth's temperature.

1. Alter Earth's orbital path around the sun.
2. Change the synthesis of plants in the ocean. The bulk of the planet is water after all.

Obviously, neither of these things are going to happen.

T.Jeff said "earth warmer by 3 degrees since 1940..."
He MEANT 1040, not 1940... That is accurate, and very well extablished,and if anything, the 3 degrees is an underestimate of the warmness. it may be as much as 5 degrees. also, we are still recovering from the "Little Ice Age" of a couple hundred years ago, so we should be getting warmer naturally. as i understand there were very few sunspots recorded then and it's highly likely that was related to solar activity.
