    AGW is anthropogenic (man-made) global warming.

    Some people use AWG which I believe is supposed to mean anthropogenic warming of the globe. Or more likely it's just a typo and they meant AGW.

  • Anthropogenic Global Warming

    The definition of Anthropogenic...

    "relating to or resulting from the influence that humans have on the natural world"

    It stands for a false idea that man has something to do with Global Warming. Although never proven, I do like to talk down to people who dont blindly belive in it!
