Not all..but most of climate changes associated with long-term careless actions made by human..

12,000 short years ago the area where I live was covered with a sheet of ice 2 miles thick, and there are at least 4 other past ice ages known from geologic record. Pretty sure mankind did not cause any of them. Natural heating and cooling planetary cycles, and we cannot do a damn thing about it. We could probably slow the process a bit by adopting a more "green" mindset, but stop it? Negative. We are just along for the ride.

Nobody is denying the climate has it's own rhythm. The rapidness of the change is what is alarming people.

I found this webpage about geoengineering and and listened to Ira Flato, (Science Friday) show, they were interviewing a company that is geoengineering, basically they admitted to spraying the atmosphere to try to reduce the suns solar radiation. I do not fully understand it fully but find it interesting.

Do you believe the climate change scientists would receive any significant grants or funding, or notoriety for that matter if they were unable to create a climate crisis naritive..... Through computer modeling that they created and by discounting data that would contradict the naritive. I just read a scientific paper about how the Antartic ice on the land mass was increasing, and that too was blamed on climate change. They also acknowledged the active volcanos and heat vents from the earths crust were present under the ice but we are to believe the melting from under the ice sheet is from warming oceans. I guess you gotta just "believe" to keep them in money and power.

Global dimming is an interesting concept.

Substantiation of the currently most plausible explanation of global dimming is enhanced cloud absorption of solar radiation due to the indirect aerosol effect. This provides a strong additional argument for reducing the use of fossil fuels.

Shorter, warmer winters with almost no snowfall in many parts of the northeastern USA this year are beginning to have many consequences.

New York state's maple syrup producers blame climate change.

Climate change could upend New York'''s maple syrup industry

Temperatures in the Northeast have been constantly rising, with nine of the last ten years recording a higher than average annual temperature compared to the 30-year period from 1981-2010.

The state of New York is no exception to this regional trend: Eight of the last 10 years were hotter than average, according to data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, or NOAA.

A full half of the all the years in RECORDED HISTORY are of above average temperature, the other half are below.

You and all of your families lives are in the half where the global temperature is rising every year.

The rate of change threatens widespread forced negatively impaired lifestyles basically due to greed and comfort at the expense of the environment.

I'm pretty sure this one sailed over your heads. Let me explain what I interpreted it as.
In response to your statement "....forced negatively impaired lifestyles basically due to greed and comfort at the expense of the environment.", he's asking what you've done to help.
Have you thought about moving out of the comfort of your house (to live in a grass hut), or giving up the comfort of your automobile, or the comfort of restaurants/ grocery stores (to eat worms and bugs)?? Or are you and I too greedy (dependent on) to give up these things at the expense of the planet?
I, for one, AM too greedy to give up these comforts, along with 80- 90% of the world's population.

It was a rhetorical question, aimed at your attempts to talk down to and criticizing others lifestyle.
