You're right about it being able to be reversed. Unfortunately while there's definitely proof of man made global warming we have arrived at the point of no return.

How did it stop with man? It certainly didn’t stop with man and creatures and man continue to evolve every day (literally). Also, all other creatures that exist are just as evolved as man. Man is not “more evolved” than any other living animal.

All the riots haven't made you believe in a devil?

The Greek word diabolos was a common way of translating the Hebrew word satan because they have the same meaning.

To play devil's advocate myself, the fact that climate is changing faster than it ever changed* doesn't prove, by itself, that man is causing it.

*Although I am not certain of that, either. The asteroid impact that killed off the non-avian dinosaurs led to some rapid climate change if I'm not mistaken.

They were caused by man.

Prior fires were not caused by man.

So it's an example of something that can be both man-made and natural.

There is science which shows how long it took for certain changes to take place.

Like when the ice age ended, it's not like one spring the glaciers all melted; it took hundreds of years.

Although I don't agree with Jeff that the timeframe is dispositive.

Look, the whole point of bringing this up is that just because the climate used to change naturally (and still does) doesn't mean that man can't cause the climate to change by his own hand.

The scientific community once (less than 60 years ago) said that continental drift was nonsense. Now it is established fact. So scientific "consensus" can and does change.

There have been many recent scientific discoveries regarding gender. For example I learned in school that there were only two genders and that you were born as one or the other. Turns out that no one is born with a gender and gender is not known until later and sometimes doesn’t exist.

Your calendar is a bit off. I was taught about continental drift in grammar school (1956-62), and it wasn't taught like a brand new discovery either.

But there is no proof that it will have catastrophic results if not stopped quickly. If worst-case predictions of past decades had come true, we'd all be dead now. Forest fires have similar results regardless of whether the sparks that touch them off are human-caused or not. And global warming of one or two degrees will have similar results regardless of whether it is human activity or solar activity that causes it.

I don’t think that he is. If you google about plate tectonics, it was proposed until the 20th century and wasn’t widely accepted until the 1960’s and 70’s.

If you were taught about continental drift, then it was pretty early. Unless you were taught earlier theories like the earth being hollow or the earth expanding, and others.

I think that it would have to be definitively caused by climate change. People point to more hurricanes and worse storms as examples of climate change catastrophes, but that’s debatable.

Well there’s the debate. Looking back 100 years it will be easy to see, but when you’re in the middle it’s harder to decipher. If there were things that were unprecedented, then it’s easier. And having more hurricanes than normal isn’t unprecedented.
