I understand that we are harming the environment, but I do not believe humans are the cause of global warming. The planet has been in a state of warming since the 'little ice age' in the 17th century.
The whole 'CO2 causes global warming' thing was started when ice cores showed more CO2 at warmer periods in history. They assumed this meant CO2 caused it. Research has shown that the increased CO2 was actually the result of warming caused by a change in solar cycles. The increase in temperature causes the more CO2 to be released from the ocean.
All the major points of global warming can be disproved fairly easily. It seems that people educated on the subject never believe it, but the general public will eat up anything the media reports without any proof.
