There is no such thing as scientific fact, only the prevailing theory, which should be constantly challenged with new data. In the case of Global Warming, the IPCC built four computer models of what they said their theory would show. All four failed. In addition, many benchmarks were laid out for climate change. (Al Gore's book listed them.) These too failed. If we were to really be using science here, we would conclude that Global Warming, as presented, is a failed theory, and await a new theory to test.
There is an excellent book still available titled Trashing the Planet; by Dixy Lee Ray. It was first published in 1990 and still can be found on Amazon for a very reasonable price. It is a well done critique of all the fear mongering that is still being done in the name of global warming (read climate change for today's vernacular).
The scientific community has invested so much time and energy into the issue of climate change and so should be viewed through the lens of publish or perish. Without grave dangers and potential disasters, all of which have happened long before mankind started keeping records of such things, the scientific community would get no research dollars from a Congress made up primarily of lawyers and bankers, neither of which have much if any training in the natural sciences, but have big enough mouths that they can manage to get themselves heard.
The American public, while correct in being skeptical of such nonsense as global warming (it does it twice every year: once in the southern hemisphere and once in the northern hemisphere..) or climate change (it does it multiple times a day), nevertheless should educate themselves on the totally bogus, money making, power grabbing issue called "Climate Change.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
