Macclesfield Town/Manchester City. It's complicated.
There are only two questions that you need to ask about whether man made global warming is a fact or not.

1 - Does Carbon Dioxide (and methane, but we'll concentrate on C02) trap heat, meaning that higher concentrations in the atmosphere lead to higher temperatures?

2 - Does burning fossil fuels by the billions of tonnes increase the concentration of C02 in the atmosphere?

I want us to develop our own renewable energy supplies not because I give a shit about climate change but because I want us to be able to make decisions independent of our need for fossil fuels from the worlds biggest scumbags, Saudi Arabia included.

You should probably give a shit about climate change. Half of England will be underwater if the icecaps melt.

And despite the bullshit that Jeremy Clarkson was peddling in the Sun at the weekend, 'global warming' probably doesn't mean 'nicer summers'...

For the British Isles in particular, the North Atlantic Current could slow, or even shut down, stop the warmer air and water from the Gulf of Mexico from reaching us, and shift from our climate to something more like Canada and Moscow.

Some people really seem to struggle with the global aspect of global warming. I've heard plenty of comments that global warming isn't happening because of one cold day/month/season/year in the UK.
