Let's say 10 years from now the temperatures are going down and we come to the conclusion that it was bull shit all along???
What will you say.
It won't...
Care to bet on that!
Yep...

lol. Sorry. We are not the reason for the Earth the way it is. Our percentage of damage is pretty low
The question is (and was) are we affecting the climate in a significant way, vis a vis an historic and unnatural rise in greenhouse gasses due to man-made effects?
Science says, "yes."
Petroleum industry-funded pseudoscience says, "no/maybe/yes, but no biggie." Bingo! There's debate, and thus a reasonable basis for doubt. The morons will buy-in reflexively, since well, that Al Gore guy was and is a Dem. Conservative Southern Dem, but no matter. We''ll call him a leftist loon, and the functional retards will be all over it.
What the hell, I think I'll go with science. You?
Significantly? I dont think so. I believe that came from scientists. Seems to me it is getting debunked more and more all the time

No, "science" does not say "yes". There has not been a single empirical test that has ever proven a single one of the computer models correct. Your belief system is based entirely on computer models and the press releases of the climatologists who release them to the compliant media.
Every time one of the assertions has been tested in the real world it has failed. Every, single, time.
That's quite a track record.

Is there really any doubt that is exactly what is going to happen in the end? The wheels are falling off the greenhouse effect hypothesis (all versions of it) as we speak.

No it's not.
Quite the opposite.
The east coast is now experiencing "once in a 100 year storms" , once a year.
That's EXACTLY what people who have done the science said would happen.

You don't think its possible it is doing that because it is getting ready for another "cycle"?

Oh Pahleeze...Give us an example. And please peer reviewed, not some loon website, or somebody with an agenda. Cold, hard facts please...

Scientists know about the cycles. They even believe in them. However, this 'cycle' is occurring much faster and way ahead of time compared to others....

No problem.....Here's one that deals with Kevin Trenberths "missing Heat" conundrum where he tried to alter the laws of physics to have an unknown 'heat reservoir' (my quotes)
hidden within the depths of the cold, cold ocean to explain his missing heat that should be warming the ocean.
"The efficiency with which the oceans take up heat has a significant influence on the rate of global warming. Warming of the ocean above 700 m over the past few decades has been well documented. However, most of the ocean lies below 700 m. Here we analyse observations of heat uptake into the deep North Atlantic. We find that the extratropical North Atlantic as a whole warmed by 1.45±0.5×1022 J between 1955 and 2005, but Lower North Atlantic Deep Water cooled, most likely as an adjustment from an early twentieth-century warm period. In contrast, the heat content of Upper North Atlantic Deep Water exhibited strong decadal variability. We demonstrate and quantify the importance of density-compensated temperature anomalies for long-term heat uptake into the deep North Atlantic. These anomalies form in the subpolar gyre and propagate equatorwards. High salinity in the subpolar gyre is a key requirement for this mechanism. In the past 50 years, suitable conditions have occurred only twice: first during the 1960s and again during the past decade. We conclude that heat uptake through density-compensated temperature anomalies will contribute to deep ocean heat uptake in the near term. In the longer term, the importance of this mechanism will be determined by competition between the multiple processes that influence subpolar gyre salinity in a changing climate."

Over 60 glacial advances and retreats have occurred during the last 2 million years.
If "ice age" is used to refer to long, generally cool, intervals during which glaciers advance and retreat, we are still in one today. Our modern climate represents a very short, warm period between glacial advances.

Do you have anything older than a month that might have had a chance to be critiqued by other experts?

What will you say.
What will you say if the ice cap is gone, the sea has risen a dozen meters and a billion people have been displaced? I suspect I know what you would say, "fuck those people, close our borders and put another polar bear steak on the grill".
The North Pole has been ice free before, most recently during the Holocene Thermal Maximum of 8,000 years ago. It may have been during the MWP, we simply don't know for certain. Here is the sea ice extent today and here is a photo of the three subs in open water at the North Pole back in 1987. You would have a pretty difficult time doing that today.
In other words....it's normal and is nothing to get all worked up about....no matter what your science and history denying religious leaders tell you.
Over 60 glacial advances and retreats have occurred during the last 2 million years.
If "ice age" is used to refer to long, generally cool, intervals during which glaciers advance and retreat, we are still in one today. Our modern climate represents a very short, warm period between glacial advances.
Also, women got the vote. And damnit, Pluto is no longer a planet, albeit still a lovable cartoon character.
Now then, what's what either you or I said tell us about global warming / climate change?

I'm sure your certainty comforts you, it does not comfort me. Cause and the effect 8,000 years ago may have some relevence to the cause and effect at work today, however, there are too many variables for any one cause to fully explain the changing climate of our time.
We know we have an impact on the environment, there are too many examples for that to be in dispute. A classic example of several factors at work explains the killer fog of London in 1952. See:

Unlike your non sequiters, his comments directly relate to climate change, as he showed quite correctly that climate change is cyclical and natural.
