Do you believe humans are responsible for Global Warming?

[GurjantGnostic]

While it is true massive volcanic activity, and meteor strikes cause more global warming than people, the effect of 8 billion cars, furnaces, ac units, and the production of goods for said people can't have 0 impact like some like to say. 

Volcanic activity or a meteor strike could end life as we know it on this planet. So could the effect of we humans. If we choose this road we will solve the problem we present the planet surely. 

Earth will be fine. We are optional.

I do not believe global warming is happening at all! From where I live it is more or less climate change.  The variability and variance in weather is definitely increasing.   The thing is that the planet has changed temperature tons of times even without humanity pumping chemicals other than coal soot in to the air for greedy Americans' plastic consumables.

There has been a massive increase in temperature.. We can tell and we know humans are responsible.. 

there is so significant evidence mate, there is none.

there is no causal relationship.

how do we know the increase in temperature, isn't because of some gas leak by tectonic plates, or the moon moved close to the earth? or some other stuff?

internationally metoerologists record accurately and in a detailed way weather on a daily basis in multiple locations of each country , that information has been pooled and analysed alongside seimic activity and solar activity logs for decades and in the case of weather centuries . Tectonic plates only release gases if a volcano occurs and that also is measured locally and globally . Ice cores are taken from the poles and analysed for weather trends , material such as volcanic dust etc and cross checked .

Where killing wildlife because of this. The ice caps are melting and the polar bears are dying.  Look at the state of the ocean. Dead Whales are washing up on shores with their bellies full of plastic. Sea birds are getting strangled because they are eating bits of plastic from the ocean.  Where destroying everything. 

Enviromental changes are affecting the coral reefs and a large percentage of coral reefs have now lost their colour and are plain grey. I think around 70% of coral reefs are now dead.

Animal behaviour has changed, because of climate change birds are now forced to migrate much earlier. This means missing out on food, chicks being born at a different time which means many will not survive.

The echo system is getting affected

We know because rational science tells us to accept what we can observe and measure. The evidence is overwhelming. and yes of course we can say what about this or that but until we can find evidence to support a counter narrative we have to accept the facts as they are.. 

However science is based around the idea that we have to try and disprove a proposition.. So climate change like all science is based on eliminating all the possible other propositions and climate change and increase in temperature is unquestionably linked to human behaviour and the release of carbon into the atmosphere

the relationships between air masses combined with all those things, are hard to predict

they cant predict the weather yet, so I would leave this

yes right,

disproving yes you are right
