Global warming?

I heard a lot of people last fall attempting to slow down (i.e., harm) the global economy by enacting cap and trade due to the (now discredited) hockey stick graph.

And for the last year, I heard a minority of scientists - a "non-consensus" by some definitions - saying the hockey stick graph would still be created if they put noise - not legitimate data - into the statistical engine that created it in the first place.

I believe warming is happening. 25000 years ago, glaciers threatened only 100 miles north of where I'm sitting right now.
