If thats how you need to justify your skepticism in the face of evidence fine - like I said earlier it makes you no different than those who cling to Creationism or ID in the face of evidence... basically letting blind-belief overrule critical or rational examination of any evidence to draw conclusions (and again I'm still fascinated by the correlation of those opposed to GW and Evolution)

Three centuries for some actually - the Royal Navy and French Navy took reams of atmospheric, oceanic, and weather readings over the centuries all over the globe.

From that, they have one hypothesis -- that man's activities are responsible from this. Without proving that hypothesis, they're onto the next step -- peddling guilt (green offsets).
Like I said what ever you need to keep telling yourself...
