I am not a scientist. This is just my opinion formed from reading various articles that both support and deny climate change being attributed to humans.
The problem with it being man made is that man hasn't been on the planet very long when compared to the age of the Earth. More often than not the data used to show that it is man made shows historical temperatures from times after human societies developed. But one look at temperatures some 600 million years ago shows that temps were slightly cooler at the poles than at the equator. And we still do not fully understand the relationship between the sun and earth. It is entirely possible that a slight change in the tilt of the earth on its axis and the sun being in a dormant stage could be the cause of ice ages. Or how about earth's orbit around the sun possibly varying a few degrees every 1,000,000 years or so.
My point being that it seems a little narcissistic of humans to think that our very short time of existence can have a huge effect on something as large as climate change.
I am probably a good person but I haven't taken the time to fill out my profile, so you'll never know! |
