Asking questions about the data and sincerely looking for answers is interesting.
What is more common on this topic are deniers. Some are simply say "there ain't no climate change." Others point to gross estimations of the climate millions of years ago to ignore instrumented measurements from the last 100 years. And others attempt to mislead by posting data from denier websites or cherry-picking data until a graph looks the way they want or discussing the wardrobe choices of coral.

Good points but I am still confused why it matters that some people don't believe in climate change. How is it important what someone else thinks or believes?
