Very interesting link about the argument hear a lot in the Villages that this is just cyclical.

Arguments from Global Warming Skeptics and what the science really says
From your link:

"Of course, it's always possible that some natural cycle exists, unknown to scientists and their instruments, that is currently causing the planet to warm. There's always a chance that we could be totally wrong. This omnipresent fact of science is called irreducible uncertainty, because it can never be entirely eliminated."

Carbon dating ASSUMES the suns cosmic ray output is constant...but we know that the suns output does change.

"Milankovitch cycles that drive glaciation show that we should be, in fact, very slowly going into a new ice age (but anthropogenic warming is virtually certain to offset that influence)."

Isn't it better to be warm than cold? I KNOW crops don't grow under snow/glaciers. They grow well when it's warm. There are no "tropical deserts" because it's too hot for plants to grow.

"The Little Ice Age following the Medieval Warm Period ended due to a slight increase in solar output (changes in both thermohaline circulation and volcanic activity also contributed), but that increase has since reversed, and global temperature and solar activity are now going in opposite directions. This also explains why the 11-year solar cycle could not be causing global warming."

And that INCLUDES cosmic rays that make the carbon 14 that they use to PROVE that it's man made warming.

It doesn't explain/prove anything.

CO2 is 0.04% of the atmosphere...it has LITTLE to do with heat retention. It's a scam to take more of our money...our labor.

They don't even list an author of the article.

On to your other link:

Same place... And the "facts" came from this place...not biased at all:

The CLIMATE PORTAL

We have a moral, ethical, and survival imperative to learn about climate change / global warming, and to act appropriately and decisively. This imperative derives from people living today and all those who will follow us. We must not have future generations say, of us: "They refused to learn" or "they knew but did not act."
Climate Portal

I'll just address the first few...I don't have time for ALL of them...

1 "Climate's changed before"

Climate reacts to whatever forces it to change at the time; humans are now the dominant forcing."

Who says? That's OPINION. Prove it.

2 "It's the sun"

In the last 35 years of global warming, sun and climate have been going in opposite directions"

And EVERY year...EVERY season the climate does the same thing here on earth. "Meteorological summer" when the daily temperatures are the highest happens AFTER the sun starts to get lower in the sky and the days get shorter. The HOTTEST time of the year in July/Aug not June when the days are the longest and the sun highest in the sky. The sun and the "climate" are going in opposite directions!

3 "It's not bad" Negative impacts of global warming on agriculture, health & environment far outweigh any positives."

Really? How? Is there a desert in central Africa because it's too hot for plants to grow? Plants LOVE heat and CO2.

I'm done...

Stop believing the lies.
