The fact is that modern man has put about 1 trillion tonnes of CO2
into the atmosphere - that can hardly be something good for the environment.
Glaciers are melting - permafrost is now releasing methane as well which is even worse.

the climate today is no different than 100 years ago... in fact, we probably had more droughts 100 years ago and worse, whereby they had to kill tens of thousands of animals as they could neither feed or water them..

An Entire South Pacific Island Nation Has Just 60 Years To Find A New Home

Kiribati is a chain of 33 atolls and islands in the South Pacific.

It is currently home to more than 100,000 people.

Kiribati has a hot, humid tropical climate, but average annual temperatures have steadily increased since 1950.

Sea level rise remains one of the biggest threats.

As sea levels have risen, wells have become inundated with salt water, threatening the supply of fresh water.

Sea level rise is a worldwide threat.

No.

I'm an AGW sceptic.

I'm male, but certainly not over 70, and I'm never cranky.

Scepticism is a good thing.
