Do they know that the Earths climate has been changing since it was formed?
Do they think the Earths climate should be in some kind of perfect equilibrium that never changes for them.
Do they think we can create some kind of global thermostat do control the earths temperature?
There were once tropics in Canada.
There were glaciers in Mexico.
Constant change. Adapt or perish.

Agreed...climate change is a natural process. But rapid change may signal a little help by man.
I'm not suggesting we all freak out, but learning a few ways that can potentially slow down the recent, rapid progression can't hurt. Is it really so bad that we look into other energy sources, rather than wasting the planet's reserves? It will create new industries and new opportunities...never a bad thing.

If you don't think the huge increase in greenhouse gasses due to human activity is causing the earth's temperature to increase, then you are just willfully ignorant of scientific research and the consensus of the entire community of climate scientists.

Who said we can control the changing climate?
Nobody's saying that.....you're spinning.
We can control the unnatural changing.
Key word......UNNATURAL.
Think of it this way.....if you pour in crap, you get crap right back.
You actually think that by pouring more and more crap into the atmosphere we're doing Mother Earth any favors?
Even your president agrees with the global warming issue, and Sean Hannity is NOT the president.

Because there is scientific evidance that shows humans emitting huge amounts of greenhouse gasses are accelerating the natural warming process that you speak of. The earth is warming faster now than it ever has before. If we cut back on our emissions perhaps we can slow the warming and make the transition more manageable.

It isn't that they want to control the environment, or think it isn't supposed to change. It is that humans are changing it unnaturally, which can lead to undesirable changes. And there are things we can do to reduce the unnatural changes, and keep the changes natural.

Libs use global warming to control you, cons use terrorism to control you. Ignore them all. Terrorism is a proven hoax and global warming is a natural event brought on by the sun!

Because I can tell the difference between real science and partisan rhetoric.

Are you a scientist?
Thank you but I will defer to the opinions of the entire global scientific community on this issue - but thanks for your insight, Doug. (Not a scientist?)
