Is man-made global warming real?

I asked if global warming a while ago, but I find it kinda vague. So is man-made global warming real? What evidence is there to support it and what evidence points to this being false?

    The man-made global warming and and climate change is as real as the two eye balls we are reading these words with.

    There is no evidence to that supports global warming as being not real.

    Another name for global warming is the green house effect which has been happening for millennium. As for man made global warming that is the question? How much of the global warming gases are produced by nature and how much by man? I have read that roughly 99% of the water vapor comes from nature just to name one global warming gas. Truth is a hard thing to find in this debate as both sides seem to have people playing fast and loose with the numbers.

    If this summer is hot with many severe storms, man made global warming is real.

    Last year, 2010, was the wettest year on record.

    Last year also tied 2005 for being the warmest year on record.

    Will 2011 become the warmest, wettest year on record?

    We'll find out this summer.

    Nine out of the ten warmest years, since instrumental records were taken, were in the last decade. They were 2005, 2007, 2009, 2002, 2003, 2006, 2004, 2001 and 2010. The warmest year before the last decade was 1998, the fifth warmest year in the instrumental record. 2010 was the warmest year in history.

    Global warming is man made... All the gases humans create get stuck in the atmosphere letting heat in from the sun and not letting it out so the earth is slowly becoming water

    of course it is!

    man is polluting the world, the world is getting overpopulated

    Places like canada need more people.. for us I think we would start running out of resources, including renewables. We may even start living underground or under water lol like submarine or something like that.. I think I would be easier than building a colony on freaking mars or the moon. Animals would start to suffer because human would have to taking their habitats for their own needs... building would get taller due to the numbers. crime would increase do to people using any means to survive "break it to make it" .

    yes by deforestation ( retention of water by the forest) which is link to desertification and increasing temperatures during the summer and lower temperature during the winter

    and by burning fossil fuel to fill corporations pockets

    Global warming the biggest hoax ever. If the ice caps were to melt the earth would tilt and new ice caps would form in different locations.

    I'm not sure global warming of any kind is real at this point. Temperatures have been flat for 15 years now and are currently falling.
