A landmark report says
scientists are 95% certain that humans are the "dominant cause" of
global warming since the 1950s.
The report by the UN's
climate panel details the physical evidence behind climate change.
On the ground, in the
air, in the oceans, global warming is "unequivocal", it explained.
If you look at the climate
of our planet it has gone up and down in cycles, there were periods where the
climate warmed and the whole planet resembled a giant desert and equally there
where ice ages, so for millions of years long before humans arrived the planet
was heating up and cooling down naturally, so I highly doubt that a few hundred
years of human industrialisation has had the profound effect that is being
reported.
Of course I fully
acknowledge that mankind is speeding up the process but I think there should be
more focus on working out how to reduce the effect we’re having rather than arguing
about how much of an impact we’re having, wouldn’t that be the more productive
thing to do?
