• anthropogenic global warming - it means man-made global warming.
  
  They are four types of global warming or anti-global warming people:
  1) AGW believers - it%26#039;s happening, it%26#039;s bad, and we%26#039;re causing it.
  2) Then there%26#039;s people like me - It%26#039;s happening, it%26#039;s not bad, and we%26#039;re not causing it; it%26#039;s natural
  3) It%26#039;s not happening.
  4) It%26#039;s happening, it%26#039;s bad, and we%26#039;re not causing it. (Those people are really rare, though)
  
  Hope this helps!

  AGW is global warming that is caused by human activities.

  All planets naturally cool and warm on long cycles.
  Anthropogenic (%26quot;man-made%26quot;) warming is a recent phenomenon wherein the planet warms faster than normal and the cause of this increase is human activity
• AGW- Anthropogenic (Man made) Global Warming
  
  Don%26#039;t listen to people saying AGW stands for %26quot;Anti-Global Warming%26quot; or %26quot;Against Global Warming%26quot;. They are wrong.
• It means against global warming. Trust me, I have a shirt that says AGW and then the definition. Me myself and i.
• Anti- global warming but i could be wrong. i think its for someone who doesnt believe that global warming is man made.

  Against Global Warming - short for the silly idea that humans can control the earth%26#039;s climate.
