I don't believe a word about this... I think that we aren't doing Earth any good by driving cars, planes and boats... But it was warmer in Medieval times than it is now...

Climate Change is 100% a fact. I think the most common mistake in this issue is mixing up Weather and Climate. Weather is day to day should I wear a rain jacket kinda deal, where as climate is the way an area usually is. For example, a rainforest's climate would be tropical, climate change would obviously, change the climate to a much warmer one which would in turn disrupt the way things naturally work there. I'd suggest checking out 6 Degrees Could Change the World. Its a little dull vut its very informative.

I don't know to be honest, there is evidence of it since Antarctica is melting at a very fast rate, but then it could just be a scheme to decrease carbon emissions... Who knows, it's a widely discussed topic so you will never actually get a "real" answer to whether it's true or not.

Honestly, I think it is truly happening, but the result might not necessarily be correct (in the theory). I mean, yeah, something bad will happen if we aren't prepared and aren't friendly, but what I can't say.
All we can do right now is to look into greener methods, like solar panel roads to drive on and power the world, or more wind power, etc. Less pollution = less greenhouse effect = happier people

I would suspect that the effect is slowly becoming exponentially greater .. that may be why you think it's so little today but in a year or two it could be massive .. I mean check out the article I have somewhere in here about the ice caps .. one year they are eh okay and the next "bam!" more than 50% gone

Global warming is serious. The pollution we're making is terrible, we need to do something. Gasoline is the worst thing, without it life would be chaotic because us humans depend on it. Less than 1 percent of the world actually uses electric or hydrogen cars, but hopefully it will come soon. I've seen this video on youtube, called HOME, and it sort of touched me: www.youtube.com/user/homeproject?blend=1&ob=4
