Global Warming NOT Manmade??

Ok, so I've always believed that global warming was down to us and all the carbon dioxide we were putting in the atmosphere. However I saw an interesting program last night that's made me think again. There were climate experts etc who actually said it was all down to the sun. The sun has magnetic fields which have gotten stronger over the last few decades, and a graph they compiled showed a direct correlation between the increase in earth's temp, and the increase in the sun's magnetic's field. The sun also sends out cosmic rays which are responsible for the formation of clouds. Clouds are very important in terms of temp. On hot days the sun doesn't send out enough of these waves to form clouds. They also said that it is perfectly normal for glaciers to break off and melt, and that in the past the glaciers melted a lot more than they are now. They also said that the changing of some ocean currents is more than likely down to something that happened in the ocean 100's or even 1000's of years ago as it takes that long for the oceans to feel any effect as they are so huge. Another interesting fact is that volcanoes/animals/plants (rotting leaves)/oceans give off way more CO2 each year than humans do (incl. factories etc) And they also said that C02 only makes up a tiny part of the atmospheric gasses. Scientists have said that from glacier samples taken, that CO2 has increased as temp has increased in the past. However the experts on the program said that there was actually an 800 year lag between the increase in temp, and the subsequent increase in CO2. And another interesting point they made is that while the land temp has increased, that in some areas the atmospheric temp has actually cooled. Now no doubt you're wondering, if this is the case why haven't we learned about it? Well they said it goes back to Margaret Thatcher's day when she wanted to turn towards nuclear fuel. She wanted research done to help back up her campaign and the global warming There has also been over a 10 fold increase in the amount of money gone into climate research. And if global warming was proven to be a natural phenomenon than many people would end up out of jobs. There are even global warming officers in some areas! There was also a report that was released on research done into global warming, and it turns out that about 15 points were missing which stated that it could not be 100% proven that global warming was down to man. A researcher that left the research project because he didn't approve of the content even threatened legal action against the publishers as they had included his name on the author list. They said that global warming journalists have to keep coming up with sensational stuff because it's their job and if they want to get published they need to keep it fresh. A glacier expert in the Arctic said that he often gets calls asking about the effects of global warming on the glaciers. The expert keeps telling them that what's happening is perfectly normal. Another interesting argument is that if there is a worldwide reduction in the output of factory pollutants, that 3rd world countries will find it hard to develop. I have to say the more I watched it the more sense it made. And it seems that the whole man-made global warming propaganda has been kept going because it's going to benefit a lot of people.
