My personal opinion is that this is a hot topic in the media, but the truth is that it is perfectly natural for the earth's climate to have temperature fluctuations. And while it is possible that human activity is playing a part in the current global warming trend, there are a number of science experts who can show evidence of other possible causes (and no, Al Gore is not a scientist). If you want to find out some supported information about global warming, find your local college geology or climatology professor. I can guarantee that they have a strong opinion on the matter, and are better educated on the topic than your average news anchor.

Yeah, as a geoscientist-in-training this has always been (pardon the expression) a hot-topic for me. When it comes to the little things, I don't know how they would effect global warming, but as far as being better for the environment try to recycle as often as you can (and use recycled products), and find ways to use fewer fossil fuels, such as turning lights off when you aren't in a room, or biking instead of driving to nearby locations.
