I mean, that's not science. You can't test or duplicate to see the results. We can just observe the correlations but there's nothing to prove that the Earth wouldn't be on the same cooling or heating patterns with, or without, human interference.
It's not a matter of if the climate is changing, it's a matter of if humans have anything to do with it and then it's a matter of if we can do anything about it. None of the plans I've seen proposed actually seem to have any real impact and until China or India get clean it doesn't really matter what the rest of the world does anyways.
consumers vote with the dollar.
places like china and india do not give a crap about climate. Their factories and business practices are by a large margin are unsustainable. This with sub human wages it creates mass produced cheap products that most of the world enjoys.
Solution stop buying cheap crap from unsustainable companies. Or at least try to minimize your consumption. Its false economy anyway a trap that ends up costing x2 as much if you bought good quality products in the first place.
In terms of climate changing sure its nature doing its thing but there is many things we can do to help offset it. For example stop chopping down the amazon rain forrest and converting it to stock farms. Thats a massive carbon sink and oxygen producer.
At this stage we are not too worried about oxygen or quality of water but maybe 50 years its going to be a thing.
