What is most assredly not clear or understood is what to do about it. And most importantly what to do about it that is not politically motivated.

And we all accept the science of for every action there is a reaction....what are the actions with any predictable reactions that demonstrate if we do thus and so here is what can be expected. What kind of time frame will the actions take before results? Months? Years? Score? Decades? Centuries?

There is far too much intellectual conjecture and political motivation for a real valid, believable hypothesis.


I also believe that most explanations are based on the here and now or what can be referred to as the "as-is" condition. Where does the current as-is condition sit relative to climate changes over at least the recorded centuries portray?

For me there is absolutely no motivation for me (and many, many others) to be had from a political presentation. We all know that politicians priorities are self centered. We know they increasingly less and less often do or propose anything that is for the good of those they supposedly represent....let alone mankind.

If there is a case for reality, it has yet to be made.
For example; I quit smoking in the early 60's when the surgeon general said it would/could kill you. There was overwhelming evidence provided by the medical community and other sciences.

Until such time as a non political inspired hypothesis, I am still waiting.
Fair questions. I see no downside to exploring wind and wave energy as a clean alternative to oil and coal as an example. Oil and coal will most assuredly run out one day, while wind and ocean waves will never be depleted. Cutting down on pollution from industrial and consumer uses of fossil fuels would also improve current air and water quality, and potentially slow or stop the warming.
