But global warming is not real man...

And germs are not real.
And atoms are not real.
And the earth is flat!
And the earth is the center of the universe!
And The Pope does not ware a funny hat and funny red shoes.

But global warming is not real man

But global warming is not really man-made.

Now, it's correct.
