    I am trying to find out if human activity has actually caused global warming. The research that I have done, indicates that the sun's activities are more responsible that humans. What is your answer?

    Hi! This is of course a very interesting topic. I would say, however, that the scientific consensus is probably the other way round, that is that humans are more responsible for climate change over the past century than the Sun is. You might want to check out a very recent press release on the subject from the National Center for Atmospheric Research:

    cheers,

    The fact is, human cause of global warming is difficult to prove, because there are too many variables and unknowns to get the absolute proof. This issue has become political instead of scientific. It is NOT a political issue. Catherine
