Look at CDIAC's level of CO2 emissions for different countries, then try to project it into the future. What you will see is that policies being presented have no chance of reducing global warming, as the developing world is too dominant a factor.

A good place to start is this booklet from our National Academy of Sciences and The Royal Society. These are the national science academies - the associations of the nations' greatest scientists that advise their nations on complex science - of the United States and Great Britain.

This link goes to the page on the National Academy of Sciences site, you can download the booklet from there.

Once you have a good understanding of the evidence and causes, you can better define you remaining specific questions. Many of those you might find googling and finding specific scientific studies. If this is research for a college course, you may have additional resources for finding studies at your college library.

While all that you list are subsets to the global warming issue the primary culprit is our introducing tons/day of CO2 into the atmosphere through our burning of fossil fuels.

As far as there being two sides to the spectrum one would be wise to consider that one side uses The Laws of Physics in its discussions concerning global warming and the other side avoids discussions of The Laws of Physics at all costs.

Its a redistribution of weath scheme , The marxist march and Naomi Klein proved it

I would go with political fraud. With al the billions spent, there is still no one who knows if it will be warmer or colder in the future and can show you their work on how they came to their conclusion.

List of scientists who disagree with global warming.

Linlyons. I wonder how many of these scientists belong to your reputable scientific organisations, most of them I suspect.

While a lot contributes to Global Warming

- Over Population

- Clear Cutting Forests .. Deforestation

-- Agriculture

- Urbanization and Industrial Revolutions

- Temperature Rise

-- Sea Level Rise

--- Shorelines

How could I narrow it, even with all of the factors? I understand there is two sides of the spectrum and I would love to hear respected sources discuss their opinion on whether Global Warming is apparent or not.

Any help with sources or articles on this topic as well??
