Many factors which are currently beyond the control of man influence global temperatures the Sun being the primary factor in this determination. Meanwhile the media focuses on the experts quoted by the alarmists to sensationalize the issue while ignoring the 100's of climatologists and scientists who don't agree on the magnitude of human influence.

Quite a few different ideas going on in that paragraph.
Al Gore doesn't define global climate change.
One season is irrelevant in the history of the earth (see MD's comments)
You have introduced the concept of man-made climate change. That is a different subject than climate change. We can agree (or not) that the climate is changing while agreeing (or not) that man is a significant cause of it. I assumed that the first three posts were about climate change, not whether or not it was man-made.
Interested in your 'polar ice caps aren't melting' link. A US Geological survey report out this past week was included for your reference
