Every reputable scientist knows that we are the prime contributors to global
warming. If you know anything about the subject, claiming that because it's
warmer or colder in a specific spot, you would know that's a fallacious
argument.

Wrong Jon. The Sun is a million times more massive than the earth.
It is well proven that tiny fluxuation in its output directly effect
weather on earth.
When lies are repeated often enough people like you
will believe them like religion without question.
Use your head and think about it. Do some research
in SUN OUTPUT WEATHER
I Googled that just now and found this:
How can you doubt the Sun is the most significant
factor?

Sun's Output Increasing in Possible Trend Fueling Global Warming

In what could be the simplest explanation for one
component of global warming, a new study shows
the Sun's radiation has increased by .05 percent
per decade since the late 1970s.
The increase would only be significant to Earth's
climate if it has been going on for a century or
more, said study leader Richard Willson, a Columbia
University researcher also affiliated with NASA's
Goddard Institute for Space Studies.
The Sun's increasing output has only been
monitored with precision since satellite technology
allowed necessary observations. Willson is not
sure if the trend extends further back in time, but
other studies suggest it does.
"This trend is important because, if sustained
over many decades, it could cause significant
climate change," Willson said.
In a NASA-funded study recently published in
Geophysical Research Letters, Willson and
his colleagues speculate on the possible history
of the trend based on data collected in the
pre-satellite era.
"Solar activity has apparently been going
upward for a century or more," Willson told
SPACE.com today.
Significant component
Further satellite observations may eventually
show the trend to be short-term. But if the
change has indeed persisted at the present
rate through the 20th Century, "it would have
provided a significant component of the global
warming the Intergovernmental Panel on
Climate Change reports to have occurred over
the past 100 years," he said.
That does not mean industrial pollution has
not been a significant factor, Willson cautioned.
Scientists, industry leaders and environmentalists
have argued for years whether humans have
contributed to global warming, and to what extent.
The average surface temperature around the globe
has risen by about 1 degree Fahrenheit since 1880.
Some scientists say the increase could be part of
natural climate cycles. Others argue that
greenhouse gases produced by automobiles and
industry are largely to blame.
Willson said the Sun's possible influence has
been largely ignored because it is so difficult to
quantify over long periods.
Confounding efforts to determine the Sun's role
is the fact that its energy output waxes and wanes
every 11 years. This solar cycle, as it is called,
reached maximum in the middle of 2000 and
chieved a second peak in 2002. It is now ramping
down toward a solar minimum that will arrive in
about three years.
Connections
Changes in the solar cycle -- and solar output --
are known to cause short-term climate change
on Earth. At solar max, Earth's thin upper
atmosphere can see a doubling of temperature.
It swells, and denser air can puff up to the
region of space where the International Space
Station orbits, causing increased drag on the
hip and forcing more frequent boosts from space shuttles.
