Actually, since the onset of the industrial revolution, we've changed the composition of our atmosphere quite a bit.Climate change is real. Human effect on it is still unproven.There are tons of papers on the subject. Going from sea level measurements. To ice core data. To simple temperature measurements. Just one example. Increases in greenhouse forcing inferred from the outgoing longwave radiation spectra of the Earth in 1970 and 1997 Natural variations don't account for the rapidity of the changes. Natural variations can be traced. Solar activity, volcanic activity, earth rotation around its axis nothing fits the current changes. Except that is one.... human activity.
See science does measure quantify and look for evidence. The way I see it simply denying without providing a decent hypothesis to explain the data is faith.
You will find not a SINGLE climatologist or Oceanoligist who denies climate change and you will find few if any, in any other branch of science. What do you think it means that climate change denying finds no credible champions among those that actually research it?
Actually...no we haven't...recently I have posted at least 8 published studies which find that our effect on the total atmospheric CO2 is vanishingly small...you "know" that we have changed the composition of the atmosphere like you "know" that the emperors new clothes are simply lovely...it is a fiction. The fact is that we don't produce enough CO2 to even overcome the year to year variations in the earth's own CO2 making machinery.
People who believe that we are adding a great deal of CO2 to the atmosphere are most always suffering from a lack of perspective and scale... A single cup of water is nothing to us, but a disaster of epic proportions to an ant colony. From the perspective of an individual, the amount of CO2 we produce must seem enormous....but alas, to the atmosphere, the amount of CO2 we produce is barely noticeable... Here, perhaps this will assist you in developing some sense of the scale involved...
June was the hottest ever recorded on Earth
Wrong again....

Your source has no factual content... Above is empirical evidence that calls bull shit on your modeled source.
"ever recorded", not ever in time. See the difference?
