Global warming - proven beyond any doubt?

As many as 161 MPs believe it is. The opposition has passed a motion urging the Parliament "to acknowledge that there is "overwhelming scientific evidence" that global warming has been brought on by human activity". To make things worse, the Liberals have introduced a bill with similar working that would be binding on the Conservative Government if passed. The opposition clearly wants the global warming issue to be "settled" just the way other social issues were. They want their opinion (and only their opinion) to become the undisputable truth on which no debate is allowed.

Before that happens, lets look at the articles which National Post has been publishing for the last couple months. Maybe the scientific evidence of global warming is not that overwhelming after all.

Part 1: Statistics Needed-The Deniers
Part 2: Warming is real - and has benefits
Part 3: The hurricane expert who stood up to UN junk science
Part 4: Polar scientists on thin ice
Part 5: The original denier: into the cold
Part 6: The Sun moves climate change
Part 7: Will the Sun cool us?
Part 8: The limits of predictability
Part 9: Look to Mars for the truth on global warming
Part 10: Limited role for CO2
