Global warming? I don't get it...?

Q: I don't believe in global warming, because I don't think humans are this powerful to change the globe's temperature. Can you tell me why you believe in it? Everything we make on earth is from the Earth, just in a different combination, I don't see how that sooo draaasticalllyyy changes the Earth. Also, Earth goes through different cycles... There was an Ice age, There were droughts, and this is probably one of Earths natural cycles that it goes through. If you can explain to me why you think it's real, I might start believing. Thanks!

A: Global warming is a myth perpetrated on an unsophisticated, gullible society by people who are pursuing personal gain. The climate is in a constant state of change. Ever hear the saying, "If you don't like the weather, wait five minutes and it will change". You could also say wait five hours, five days, five years, five decades, five centuries... Did you know that Vikings settled in Greenland beginning around 1000AD, and grazed sheep on vast fields of lush green grass (hence the name Greenland). Over the next couple of centuries, the climate changed bringing cooler weather, more snow and eventually ending the sheep grazing business. Archaeologist, studying the bones and remains of the Vikings buried there have confirmed that over the decades that the Vikings inhabited Greenland, their diet gradually changed from the meat and veggies provided by good farming, to seafood. Eventually, the Viking settlers died out or returned to Scandinavia. And BTW, during this warm period, the coastal areas of the world were no inundated with water! What's Greenland like today? There still isn't much sheep and cattle grazing going on! The place is mostly ice pack and glacier. It was MUCH warmer a thousand years ago than it is now. Global warming is not man made, it's not unnatural, and it's not going to stop because you installed fluorescent lights.
