I get that there are changes happening to our earth,cant refute that.
I am more inclined to believe that the world is changing and there isnt a whole hell of alot that we can do about it. I dont believe that if we stop driving cars and recycle EVERYTHING and stop cows from farting that it will end climate change. Its a natural cycle and we will adjust, somehow it seems mankind has always been able to adapt and improvise.

The climate always changes, yes. Unfortunately the worldwide industrial revolution has screwed things up a bit, in an additive effect. Nobody is trying to end climate change, it can't be done. But we can stop accelerating our addition to it, in the hope that places like the Florida Keys will still be above ocean level, and habitable, in 40-50 years.
Under the "adapt and improvise" part, we'll unfortunately have to see many, many people die, and many species die. Visit the Maldives now if you wanna see it
