This needs more upvotes. Like creationism, global warming denial is one of the myths that has strong support on the 'developed' USA yet no basis in actual proof

  Where do I fall in? I believe in climate change. I don't believe climate change is the result of only humans. And if climate change turns out to be bullshit, I'm glad it's being a driver for alternative energy sources, better production of goods, more environmentally friendly packaging, etc. I just believe the cause being humans is over hyped and the fact that we renamed it from global warming to climate change because the models didn't support global warming....

    What caused it then? Volcanoes? please, farming, livestock and fossil fuels produce much more quantity of CO2, methane and nitrous oxide than anything else? whose fault is that? fertilized plants and Cows? but who mass produces those? Humans. And can we really take the risk of betting that it's not us? Yet, you are fundamentally right, there are also other punctual events that contribute to it, but decisively that the major factor is us. This is like the leaded gasoline incident in the 60s or 70s, now everyone sees how obvious it is but all of the white noise built by special interest groups that control one major party in the US makes it look like it's feasible for it not to be a thing. It isn't When Brian Cox talks about consensus, he is not talking about consensus among the average Joe or Jane, he is talking about the scientific community, the ones that are experts in the matter.
