Nobody fully understands our ecology, we only know so much about it. Global warming is a good theory that does explain a lot. However, we don't know for sure. Our climate goes in cycles. In 10000 years, we will be in another Ice Age, which it what it feels like outside right now. :P

They bring up the facts of traces of water and many other planetary features of Mars. So basically, if Mars could be a little farther from the sun, it would have been just like Earth.
But anyway...... another issue is proof. Scientists say that Earth has been through global warmings before. The last global warming was responsible for "removing" the ice from the Ice Age. Earth is getting closer to its next warming but it is not due for a looooong time. So just relax....
To tell you the truth, as you can see from the picture below, I could sure use some "warming".

edit: sorry, this has basically been said but since I spent the past semester getting this stuff pounded in my head...I thought I'd say something.

Trust me weather comes and goes in cycles. There are extremes. Thats what happens when you live on a continent away from marine influences.
