there are many more vested interests that want to see it pushed as a myth. I remember seeing an industry piece with some company spruik talking about how we were doing "god's work" by helping global warming along because it will increase the tropical areas of the earth making it more lush and fertile which was "better for farming" lol.

The fact is it *IS* hotter now than a century ago, the only question is how much of that is our fault and how much is just natural long term fluctuations.
