5. Science has shown that the earth has gone through a number of warming and cooling periods
and science has shown that carbon dioxide traps heat by attenuating (absorbing) reflected solar radiation. Science has predicted that the global mean surface temperature will rise as a consequence of increasing concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, and scientific measurements have corroborated the predictions.

7. And my heart rate varies as well
I'd like to think that I'd be getting it checked out if it climbed to record highs and I wasn't exercising. No problem for those who think that anything that oscillates is off-limits to any scientific thought.

Horizontal sine curves vary. If you were to pick up one end of a sine curve you would say it still varies -- but most people would recognize the difference.

2. Indeed
But it seems to support the theory of man-made global warming don't you think?
