What if we try to stop it and fail?

What if we don’t try to stop it and we’re still safe because climate change is ongoing and natural?

I wouldn't say "nothing bad happens."



Renewable energy is not ready to be the only source of power for America. So switching to it would wreck the economy.

That's based on the idea that there is a real threat or crisis. I have researched this topic objectively and extensively. It's not a threat. At worse we will see some fairly minor changes but the planet (and nature) will make natural adjustments accordingly.

Aren't they forgetting that 50 foot tall cold blooded lizards once roamed the plains of Alberta and that they were covered with jungle?

You forgot the reparations and expanded welfare state.... Apparently that's in the model too..

Yes, if we don't block the sun and reduce atmospheric CO2 to zero then life on earth will die! The scientific models prove it!

Sarcasm? I hope you're not serious Because CO2 isn't a pollutant and it is required. In fact, if we go to 150 ppm we will all die.

Terrible links... No need to curse emotional one. If you "read" and learn with impartiality from both sides of the issue. It will slowly become clear to you which side is lying or skewing information on the science.

They have yet to prove any relationship exists and the extent of the relationship.

Yes, they have. You can read about it here: https://www.nature.com/articles/srep21691



Unless you've already formed a conclusion and are rejecting data that contradicts that conclusion.

It’s a flawed study. 

“... causal structure between the global radiative forcing and the annual global mean surface temperature anomalies (GMTA) since 1850.“

They are not mathematically calculating a correlation coefficient and they are intentionally ignoring pre Industrial Age data. Sample size matters... 169 years vs 800,000 years of ice core data.

Fixed even more, now it's as accurate as possible.

True, all those foot powered cars in Fred Flintstone's day caused the ice age!!!
