The problem is attribution. Some believe it's manmade while others believe it's cyclical. I don't believe people like Al Gore who are profiting from scare tactics. Most people would like safe, inexpensive, reliable energy and would be willing to make adjustments to conform to any naturally evolving changes and their impact on humans, animals, etc. What many of us are NOT interested in involves making small groups of politically connected people wealthy while jeopardizing our future with unnecessary regulatory controls. Don't sacrifice our nation's future while attempting to redistribute wealth. Glaciers have melted before and will melt again. That's a fact while much of the attribution is only conjecture.
Scientists will tell you that it is both. There are natural changes but there is also a human-causes spike in the curve. Give me one example of this. Horesechit, it is not conjecture. It is studied, written about, survived challenges, and been accepted by the worlds experts on climatology. Yes glaciers have melted before, but humans didn't exist then. Glacial and icecap melting have been associated with climate change and mass extinctions, too.
Well then, wise up! The climate changes that caused those pre-historic meltings killed billions of creatures and caused mass extinctions. This time we will be among them.
If it's not a fact (which it isn't)...it's only a theory, or conjecture, or quess, etc. I wish those damn dinosaurs would've been more responsible.
Global warming puts me in mind of those infamous words of Major Fambrough: "Sir knight? I've just pissed in my pants.........and nobody can do anything about it." ___ Dances with Wolves
Your lack of understanding on this topic is appalling for one so outspoken. Read the IPCC report. The consensus of the worlds climate experts is overwhelming and they have tons and tons of published evidence that you only need to read. You . . . got nuthin'.
