Okay.
I do think it exists. But I think we can do something about it.
I think it exists because credible scientists have demonstrated that it does.
CSIRO scientists and the climate change debate (Feature Article)
I'm pleased that those same scientists are looking at practical ways of dealing with it.
Climate Change
This has led to - at least my government - looking at what needs to be done about it.

As I said before, I don't trust the vested interests which just want to deluge us with propaganda. I've seen what's happening here, I've seen our governments indulging in partisan squabbling about water while our main river system is dying. I'm now very keen to keep our politicians focussed on the reality of climate change because I don't want it to get to the point where it's irreversible.
So unless the scientist says that AGW is real, its just propaganda?
We urge the United States government to reject the global warming agreement that was written in Kyoto, Japan in December, 1997, and any other similar proposals. The proposed limits on greenhouse gases would harm the environment, hinder the advance of science and technology, and damage the health and welfare of mankind.
There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gasses is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth's atmosphere and disruption of the Earth's climate. Moreover, there is substantial scientific evidence that increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide produce many beneficial effects upon the natural plant and animal environments of the Earth.
This petition has been signed by over 31,000 American scientists.

The average temperature of the Earth has varied within a range of
about 3°C during the past 3,000 years. It is currently increasing as the
Earth recovers from a period that is known as the Little Ice Age, as
shown in Figure 1. George Washington and his army were at Valley
Forge during the coldest era in 1,500 years, but even then the temperature
was only about 1° Centigrade below the 3,000-year average.
