Sorry but this is wrong. You have been misinformed.

How the hell can you not realize that quoting someone making an unsubstantiated claim (within that quote) is not evidence? HN never ceases me to amaze me... Point me to evidence that establishes a causal relationship between human activity and climate change. Climate is changing alright, but is this phenomenon anthropogenic? I won't bother rephrasing it again in this thread; I think my demand is extremely easy to grasp as is, at least for most people.

It's simple chemistry. It was predicted to occur by nerds way back in the 1800s, if we continued to add CO2 to the atmosphere, which we did. You would know this if you had read the content of the link I provided you with.

I do not believe that you are arguing in good faith, or maybe your are just not capable of doing so?
