Alright! I read it twice!....now.....heres the rebuttal.
From the article
"The scientific consensus about the cause of the recent warming was summarized by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in 2007: “Most of the observed increase in global average temperatures since the mid-20th century is very
likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations… The observed widespread warming of the atmosphere and ocean, together with ice mass loss, support the conclusion that it is extremely
unlikely that global climate change of the past 50 years can be explained without external forcing, and very
likely that it is not due to known natural causes alone.”
Definition of likely is
"such as well might happen or be true; probable."
For something as big as climate change, to rehall the entire economy based on it, we need something more solid then "LIKELY".
Ok, one more....
"ATMOSPHERIC CARBON DIOXIDE CONCENTRATIONS are higher today than at any time in at least the past 650,000 years. They are about 35% higher than before the industrial revolution, and this increase is caused by human activities, primarily the burning of fossil fuels."
And
"The concentrations of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in atmospheric samples have been measured continuously since the late 1950s. Since then, carbon dioxide concentrations have increased steadily from about 315 parts per million (ppm, or molecules of carbon dioxide per million molecules of dry air) in the late 1950s to about 385 ppm now, with small spatial variations away from major sources of emissions. For the more distant past, we can measure atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases in bubbles of ancient air preserved in ice (e.g., in Greenland and Antarctica). Ice core records currently go back 650,000 years; over this period we know that carbon dioxide concentrations have never been higher than they are now. Before the industrial revolution, they were about 280 ppm, and they have varied naturally between about 180 ppm during ice ages and 300 ppm during warm periods (Fig. 1). Concentrations of methane and nitrous oxide have likewise increased since the industrial revolution (Fig. 2) and, for methane, are higher now than they have been in the 650,000 years before the industrial revolution."
Now ill use wiki as my rebuttal to this part. Mind you, yes, im well aware wiki believes in human caused global warming. However, because they do believe also in accuracy, i believe in the quote below, they have shot there belief in the foot.
From wiki
"temperature records for the last 420 million years indicate that atmospheric CO
2 concentrations peaked at ~2000 ppm during the
Devonian (∼400 Myrs ago) period, and again in the
Triassic (220–200 Myrs ago) period. Global annual mean CO
2 concentration has increased by more than 45% since the start of the
Industrial Revolution, from 280 ppm during the 10,000 years up to the mid-18th century
[2] to 415 ppm as of May 2019.
[3][4] The present concentration is the highest for 14 million years."

Ok.....so.....in otherwords, concentrations of co2 wer WAY higher before our industrialation came along. And obviously the planet did just fine.
Also, id like to add one more thing. This is called the Milankovitch cycles. Or you could call it the orbital cycles.
Here is a video of it i seen awhile ago. Its worth looking at. Remember theres many factors that cause warming/cooling.
To summerize how it works, the planet does not just have 4 season cycles, it also has other cycles, which happen over longer periods of time. Thus the warming/cooling.
Interestingly, Nasa has an article that matches mars ice caps doing what ours is doing. That article is here if i remember. I think this is the one i read last time. But if not, its close enough.
NASA Radar Finds Ice Age Record in Mars' Polar Cap
Ok! Your thoughts now.
