  1.  @James-cb7nb  What about geology? The people that actually study the history of the planet. The global temperature is usually 70 yet for some reason coming out of the last ice age, the Earth got stuck at 60. The plates have shifted which has changed the flow of the ocean which has been the biggest factor in the oceans warming which also is contributing to the rising CO2 levels. There are many times in Earth's past that CO2 levels were the same and much higher and increased rapidly, but we don't know why. The most stable time in the Earth's history was during the dinosaurs when the ice caps were gone or tiny and the world was tropical. As for the idea we've got to do something NOW, even at the extreme rate of 1 inch per year, it will take 2000+ years for the ice caps to melt and the oceans rise the 200 feet they predict. The places being affected now, like Miami, should never have been settled because it's supposed to be Everglades all the way to Orlando. Even once the ice caps are gone, which large ones aren't normal in Earth's past, Florida won't be underwater. Mostly it will affect islands, which will disappear eventually anyway because erosion is a thing, and areas currently below sea level. Basically we're trying to force the Earth to remain in a state that's not normal for it because we're somehow superior and still, contrary to all the evidence, think we can control everything. The majority of this warming is just the Earth trying to finish coming out of the last ice age. By the way, it's also not unusual for the Earth's temperature to swing quickly either way by 10 degrees. It's been as high as 80 and life flourished. We know that because alligator fossils have been found within the arctic circle. You can attempt to argue that glaciers are older than the last ice age so obviously there were polar ice caps. The problem is the oldest ones were found buried below the level the sun warms the surface which actually supports them not being normal or the surface ones would be much older. Are humans contributing with CO2 emissions? Probably, but it's also much more complicated than just CO2 and also involves water vapor which has increased. They tend to go hand in hand, and that's mostly caused by the warming oceans which I already explained.
