I find the data that your source cites (the parts I could wade through and seemed at all scientific) unsupportive of his claims. I don't claim to be a climatalogical expert, but neither should this person. --Derogatory comment snipped--

Anyway, you're ignoring the main point. Is there global warming? The common perception, along with most of the scientific evidence states yes. Is it merely a cycle in the planet's weather, or are we affecting the Earth's climate enough to contribute? This should be studied so that we can see if we should be doing something to control or adapt to it; that applies even if what your source says is correct.

Skepticism is great, but what counts is truth. One shouldn't ignore a situation that could be a problem just because dealing with it might be uncomfortable, or cost you something.
