Regarding Global Warming, consider these reminders from extronics.com.  Then, think about the issue some more.

Courtesy:  extronics.com: So what is science? What is the Scientific Method?

For something to be considered a scientific fact, it must be testable with the scientific method.  

1. Observe some aspect of the universe.
2. Invent a tentative explanation, called a hypothesis, that is consistent with what you have observed.
3. Use the hypothesis to make predictions.
4. Test those predictions by experiments or further observations, and modify the hypothesis in the light of your results.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until there are no discrepancies between theory and experiment and/or observation.

Real science is humble. Some things are unknowable. It is a human tendency to not to accept the idea that some things are beyond our reach of knowing, but we really can't know everything. 

Step 4 of the scientific method requires an experiment.  An experiment requires a control. What are the controls in climate science?

Climate science is often reported as if a 'run' of a computer model is an experiment.  A computer model cannot discriminate theories into true and false, because it is not measuring reality.  (Such models may give one an idea where to experiment, but to claim they "prove" anything is pure fiction and should lead one to discount the source.) Computer models are sometimes used to simulate electronic circuits for engineers - in an electronics circuit (which is a closed system)  - these computer models often predict behavior quite different from a real circuit. If such a model is adjusted until the results give the expected result, it is often to the folly of the engineer.  The proof of such a circuit must wait until a real circuit is built: reality must be tested, not a model.

If you haven't done so, go to WeatherUnderground.com.  You decide.
