In the near term it doesn't really matter what the cause is. It is
verifiable that the earth is getting warmer. Although local conditions
are somewhat irrelevant, we haven't seen a hard freeze here since about
2000.
That said, the question becomes what can we do to counter it, or maybe
just CAN we counter it? I don't have an answer to either of those
questions. I do know that a lot of scientists (the vast majority of
them) think that the CO2 (and methane) in the atmosphere is acting as an
insulating blanket (and have devised experiments to verify it). We're
also making progress on figuring out where most of those gases are
coming from.
So.... We might disagree on what the cause is, but we should surely know
by 2050 what it is with a lot more certainty. If we're both alive by
that time, I'd love to sit down with you and buy you a beer to have some
laughs about how stupid one of was way back in 2016.

I think this is s bit different. I happen to think the big fireball in

to meet the data so maybe I will be deemed correct one day. I just
love that Leonard Nemoy ice age special years ago. Now it is heat.
But, if this is global warming I'll take it. We are way above or rain
totals normally.
Oh yes, it is change not warming, that way no matter what happens we
were right.
It doesn't matter anyway because the Nords have solved it by turning
carbon monoxide into rock.
