Oh by the way... You contradict yourself. You say global warming isn't real and then in the next sentence claim that the climate is changing. Though I suspect you meant to argue that humans don't play a significant role in climate change. The degree to which humans play a part however is irrelevant to me. The more important challenge is how to adapt to face these problems. Because if you're right and the human impact is minimal then there is no way to avert them.
The research is done by NASA... Mars and earth are simultaniously warming up, which suggests that the global warming of our planet is natural, which would also fit in to geological theories about Ices Ages, earth's cycles etc
and I think it is safe to say, he was talking about the human contributions... there was no need to be so pedantic.

For those of you that havn't made up your minds and are open to new information. I recommend you guys watch The Great Global Warming Swindle... Extreme Global warming believers will say that this is merely a consipiracy theory video, but in fact, it has a lot of interesting information, some of which I learnt at Uni, instead of the "Humans caused it, so humans should fix it", which I've been getting since I was 11 from Geography class...
Personally, I don't know what to believe, but I highly doubt that Humans are the biggest contributers to global warming...
