global warming is a product of our sun being a dying star.That alone affects our weather, temperature, and a lot more.Anyone that believes that we as humans are causing it are the same ones arrogant enough to think we are alone in this vast universe. They come from the same ilk that swore the earth was flat or that the earth was the center of the universe. Damned fools.

That's funny, the astrophysicists I work with would disagree with you. Do you have a Ph.D in astrophysics?

Please do, explain how the sun causes global warming. Or can you just say it causes it without backing it up? I can tell you that in the 11 year solar activity cycle, the solar luminosity changes a whopping 0.1%, which is not enough to account for global warming. I can also tell you that the sun has been in a prolonged solar minimum for the last few years (dubbed "The Weird Solar Minimum"). I can also tell you that the Milancovitch have in the past driven the onset of glacial and interglacial periods, which have been expedited by feedback mechanisms, and they in no way correlate to what is happening now. Would you like more?



You probably need me to tell you how to read a graph.
