In the middle ages it was much warmer and during the Roman era as well.
CO2 is good. It makes plants grow and the plants then produce oxygen.
There has been a noted increase in solar activity that may account for some and also the tilting of the earth on it's axis.
The I.P.C.C. has been totally discredited.
C.R.U. (climate research unit) director
Phil Jones wrote in an email that he would keep papers questioning letters (from noted scientists) questioning the connection between human activity and global warming out of the inter governmental report
even if we have to redefine what the peer review literature is. In another he and the infamous Michael Mann discuss blackballing a certain journal because the editor was will to publish opposing papers.
In e-mail 1897 after Phil Jones admits deleting material the head warmist from the U.E.A. David Palmer warns " Phil, you must be very careful about deleting material, more particularly when you delete it".
In 2000 Phil went to a conference in Tenerife on solar variability held by solar scientists and found that many in the solar terrestrial scientists "seem totally convinced the solar variability and output changes can account for the the observed changes we are seeing".
When pressed Phil Jones admits in yet another e-mail that "this (warming)is all based on gut feeling, not science.
I could go on about how their idea of peer review is to have on warmist review the work of another so that naturally he agrees with the others work. A small clique all agreeing and no real review.
When this scandal broke the global warming establishment led by the U.N. (I.P.C.C.), Media and academia went into move along, nothing to see here mode. All the investigation that followed were obvious in their effort to restore credibility to the U.N..
The global warming industry investigated itself and exonerated itself with the predetermined goal of saying that climategate was much ado about nothing.

There is tons more that shows that global warming as put forth by the I.P.C.C. is a self serving farce.
They deleted findings that didn't support their findings and lied about others.
They even changed the numbers about past temperatures to suit their desired findings when the real numbers didn't.
It's hard to find the real story because they so fully controlled the media and papers available.
Rex Murphy of Canadian Broadcasting summed it up this way: "Climate gate pulls back the curtain on a scene of pettiness and turf protection, manipulation. Defiance of freedom of information, lost or destroyed data, and attempts to blacklist critics or skeptics of the global warming cause. "Science and advocacy have gone to bed together and both have had a good time".
The I.P.C.C. and the U.N. have been shown to be a lobbying organization portraying itself as a science panel.
.
Look if they failed to find that CO2 was the problem they would no longer have a reason to study it or to be in charge of offering solutions.
That would have killed a lot of peoples cash cow. I think it was Phil Jones got 19 million in a year to do research with his predetermined outcome.
There is so much more. However if you try to find it, instead you'll find almost totally denials from the warmists.
Google it and all you'll get is stories attacking the skeptics and denying climate gate.
To achieve anything, you must be prepared to dabble on the boundary of disaster.”
