Evidence > Opinions.
But if you want to sling opinions, here's a juicy read that came out two days ago: http://www.cbc.ca/technology/story/2008/12/09/climate-meetin...

The hubris of men never fails to surprise me as I study history. People actually believed that we could change a planet's climate catastrophically based on thirty years' data?! When we had other data showing that the the climate naturally shifts, often unexpectedly? Asteroids and Volcanoes: Yes, they can drastically affect climate. Smokestacks? Not so much.
