I don't think anyone here is arguing that humans don't have an impact on the environment. What we are saying is that there can be other factors which can be more significant in the contribution to the changes.

Sure, pollution and greenhouse gasses are bad. It should be our responsibility to reduce them whether they are affecting our climate or not. But I think to soley say this is the result of human activity is rediculious. And i'm not a conservative.
That article is all over the place. This is why it is hard to base opinions on global warming from the media. The media likes to give black and white answers, while scientists don't.

A study by Swiss and German scientists suggests that increasing radiation from the sun is responsible for recent global climate changes.

And of course you have the right wing politician that debunks it without offering any evidence or other cause.
