Do you think global warming is a fact or myth?

Which one and why?
 
It's a pretty irrefutable fact, do people still believe it to be a myth?
 
Global warming is not a myth. Over the last few years, the dry seasons in my country has been unusually hot, almost triple of what I have known over my two years ot growing up.
 
I was taught in the 70s that we're actually in another Ice Age, this temporary warming is part of that though, in a way that I can't explain scientifically.

There are beliefs that the other planets in our solar system have gone through various warming or ice trends. At one point, they think that Mars held running water.

The reason why people believe it to be a myth is because it’s an “abstract” concept for the average person. Since it’s a gradual thing as opposed to an instantaneous thing, it can cause doubt. Add onto that, the more heavily affected places are far away from them, makes it less tangible.

For example, the average person doesn’t know or understand why an ICE vehicle needs gas, but you know that when it runs out of gas, your car won’t start.

That and add on the fact it gets politicized, it adds to people’s skepticism.
