The majority of scientists believe global warming is real. Scientists look at data and derive results. It's an apolitical process. And scientists all over the world are coming up with the same conclusion, so stop going on about left-wing poltical agendas.

The Earth warms. The Earth cools. It is a massively complex and dynamic system.

To claim that these processes are governed by human activity is the height of narcissism or stupidity.

Let's see some proof. Remember, the key is that global warming is alleged to be the result of human activity. This in turn has political implications across the board, and globally. Otherwise global warming would simply be a non-political subject. Furthermore, you say "a majority of scientists". Whose opinion was solicited in coming to this conclusion? And how many of those scientists are invested in the acceptance of human-agency global warming? Of those who are not making a dollar off of it, how many are even qualified to make an assessment? The Earth has too many atmospheric, biological, geological, and astronomic variables to make any such conclusion in the absence of hard proof. And if there were any hard proof, a) we'd have seen it already, and b) it would be a lot more than a simple majority of scientists who agreed.

The majority of scientists believe global warming is real.

Proof?

While you are looking, you might want to look over this petition signed by 17,000 scientists saying there is no scientific basis for global warming.
