    Nearly all climate scientists today believe that much of Earth's current warming has been caused by increases in the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, mostly from the burning of fossil fuels.

    PUCKSPELL: "I can fine NO EVIDENCE that CO2 from human activity is causing global warming as well as thousands of scientist."

    That you can't find evidence that CO2 from human activity isn't causing "thousands of scientist" isn't surprising, PUCKSPELL, since CO2 from human activity doesn't cause scientists.

    That you can't find evidence that CO2 from human activity is causing global warming - well, I'm going to go out on a limb here (ok, not really), PUCKSPELL, and guess that you are not a climate scientist. As for what actual climate scientists have to say about CO2 from human activity is causing global warming:

    "Nearly all climate scientists today believe that much of Earth's current warming has been caused by increases in the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, mostly from the burning of fossil fuels."
    -- Ralph J. Cicerone, President of the National Academy of Sciences and a leading climate scientist, U.S. Senate testimony, July 21, 2005

    Oh and by the way: There are not "thousands of scientists" who are experts in climate science who can't find evidence that CO2 from human activity - if you think otherwise then you have been taken in by misleading global warming denier propaganda, PUCKSPELL.
