OK I know this is a hot topic but I am looking for the truth here. So what I would like to do is ask all of you about global warming. I am not a believer in man made global warming even though I understand some of the arguments. What I would like is for a true debate on the subject with only scientific facts and there sources. In other words I want someone to prove to me that I am wrong in thinking that we are not the ones causing this global warming mess. I am not looking for your opinions, but how you got to your opinions/knowledge. So to say exactly what I am looking for:

1.Your knowledge on the subject.
2.The references or websites where you can prove it.

I want to be able to look up the information myself, this is why I would like the websites of the scientists/climatologists that said it. Now for the other part of this, This information whether its proven to me or not will go into my political forum. (I'm going to withhold the address for now). Also I will vote the best answer in either direction. Thank you in advance to all who does this.
 
If you're looking for convincing evidence that global warming is real, you aren't going to find any.

What climatologists claim is that the Earth has warmed over the 20th century and their climate models have a 0.2 degree shortfall over the second half of the 20th century which suggests that human activity is making the temperature rise.

Problem is, that's all the evidence they can find and models can easily be altered to produce any result by changing the assumptions they are based on. These climate models have been unable to predict climate change before it happens. Nobody saw the cooling of the last 10 years comming - the IPCC was confident of 0.2 degrees per decade warming.

The case against humans causing significant climate change is there is no significant upper atmosphere warming which is fundamental to greenhouse effect type warming.

It has been hotter in the past without human interference.

If you measure the effect of infrared absorbtion of CO2 in a laboratory, it is very small.

CO2 absorbs only a very narrow range of infrared radiation and this range has already been saturated.
