The public-political-economical dispute pro or contra the term "global warming" is a desperate attempt to hide man's major share of the responsibility for climate change.
There is no doubt that man shares in the responsibility of climate change.

The problem is that the actual change is minute compared to the power of nature, and that it will only serve to spawn differences in the types of life supported - not quite an end to the world. Humans can warm the world all they want ... one volcano of sufficient strength will nullify any effect.

In fact, from a historical perspective (using ice ages and volcanic activity as a basis), it is quite possible that man may be having a balancing effect on the environment. Perhaps we are warming it, and it will help a natural cooling extreme be less dangerous to our culture.
