Not much

A report came out last week indicating that global warming is taking place on Mars. Is that because Bush didn't sign Kyoto? Solar activity is increasing. Could it be that some of the Earth's warming is caused by solar activity?

Have you ever been to Glacier Bay National Park? I have. The history of the park indicates that massive glacier retreat took place there well over 100 years ago, corresponding to the end of the Little Ice Age. What caused the global warming that ended the Little Ice Age?

I'm not discounting that human activity may be influencing climate. However, you seem rather dogmatic in that human activity is the dominant factor in climate change (at least, that's how you come across to me). Geologic evidence shows many cycles of global warming and cooling dating back well before humans even existed. That suggests that climate is always changing and that humans aren't always the cause.
