To anyone who believes that global warming is man made please watch a video called "The great global warming scam" on shh you know what tube. It has real scientists giving real data and it's opened my eyes to the biggest scam ever perpetrated on the human race. Watch it then come back and refute it.

A. C12/C14 and C12/C13 ratios prove the excess CO2 is indeed coming from fossil fuels. This has been discussed in detail several times on ATS, I am pretty sure you participated in some of those threads.
B. It is ignorant with the amount of fuel we burn, which CO2 is the by product, to believe it does not raise CO2 levels.
C. Claiming CO2 is not relevant because it is only 0.04% of the atmosphere is a fool's argument. It still contributes greatly to the greenhouse effect and a 40%+ increase of CO2 is quite significant.
D. Better education and better alternatives in my opinion are the answer. Even the Oil tycoons in Dubai know fossil fuel consumption will be phased out and are betting/investing in alternative energy.
Cap and trade on CO2 is a discussion worthy of it's own thread.
This all has been discussed previously on ATS.
I still feel like those youtube videos are a waste of time and havent watched them as most links like that are a bunch of talking heads who are concerned about sounding right, making the other side appear wrong instead of actually addressing the evidence.

Actually you are wrong. It's not between man made or natural. It's between man made and natural or just natural. Climate Change deniers like to obfuscate the issue by pretending like man made climate change can't work in tandem with natural climate change.

So, what is your definition of "Climate Change denier?" Does that include skeptics? I'm just wondering...

My argument is summed up by a lot of variables, including margin of error, accuracy of reported numbers, method of data collection, motivation of certain reports, opposing data, etc., etc.

Some of those things aren't scientific analysis and are borderline bias based. I'm not sure I can agree with you anymore. I only care about the data presented. When you start talking about things like "motivation for doing a report" you are venturing into "I'm looking to prove this wrong" territory instead of just testing the data to see where it goes.

Data never lies. If it is collected properly, it shows. If it is collected improperly, it also shows.
