The problem with global warming is unless you ship people to Antartica, or show them time lapse videos of the ice melting and retreating....and then some will just make up some dumb uneducated explanation...
The best explanation I have for global warming was from Neil DeGrasse Tyson... Say you're walking a dog, the dog will wander around, side to side. You more or less get dragged in one general direction. The dog in this case is the weather, always changing and very difficult to see the overall trend. You on the other hand are global climate.
Granted even 125+ years of data collection is very difficult alone to make heads or tails. Even with the latest technology it is very difficult to see the real trend. Is it global warming due to us being here driving our cars and whatnot? Or is it part of a bigger pattern. I mean it is pretty obvious industry has had an effect on things.
