Scientists can be completely wrong, even when it is the accepted opinion. For example, for many years almost all doctors said that peptic ulcers were caused by stress. It was the only thing accepted. Then two doctors said they thought it was bacteria. They were ridiculed, until they proved they were right.

I agree, scientists are often wrong. Next winter when people in northern latitude are completely freezing from record cold temperatures, then people will say that's whether not climate. Well it works both ways.
This is not science, it's politics. All the researches that don't agree with the narrative is discontinued. Scientists have to provide expected results if they want to continue getting funds. That's just how it is.
The west got richer in part thanks to oil and carbon. But now that they have reached their limit, NOW that developing countries are increasing their oil and carbon consumption, well, it's not good anymore.

Trust me, I'd rather it be an ice age because I hate the heat..
Warming climate is good for plants and animals. In cold climates, plants and animals die. That means humans dying as we live of plants and animals.
People are needlessly worrying about global warming, the real danger is global cooling. After the warming phase ends there will sure come the cooling. I think it will happen sooner than people think.
People are starting to realize, alright, especially in the western United States, where the mercury is going to places rarely seen, droughts worsen and fires rage.
Only the zealots continue to tell themselves their eyes are lying.
I was in Rapid City, SD in July 1973 when it hit 110° (link to historical data). Now that's rare. Though I was 16 at the time I didn't exactly panic either.

How were they proven right? Did AM radio and random people the internet prove they were right, or was there some other method that proved they were right?

They were proven right through research. But the AGW crowd will just not accept any research that differs from their cause.

Problem is that it's warming because of Co2. Co2 is good for plants but too much can even cause harm. causes their ability to fight off plant diseases to weaken, and at the same time, when it heats up, it causes moisture to evaporate stunting the process photosynthesis. So it gets an abundance of Co2 and heat but then that extra Co2 and heat causes the environment to dry up, thus causing the plant to die of heat and dehydration.
So there's a balance that is needed. Too much of a good thing can be bad.
More signs of global warming. I expect the same nonsense, inanities, and vacuous comments from the Global Warming denialists. The rising worldwide temperatures are what are predicted from anthropological climate change. The science is settled on this matter.
The purpose of this thread is to point out the trends. If you care about future generations, you will want action taken immediately. If not, I suppose they can just burn.
I'll tell you what....I will take the word of climate scientists over your ignorant speculations every day.
I guess one can be proud of their gullibility.
