Climate change is real

That article. is. trash.
The title attempts to mislead the reader by saying they'll provide 100 reasons proving why climate change is natural, while many of the "facts" have little or nothing to do natural systems. Here's some examples of the teams middle-school level work, remember, the title of the article is "100 Reasons Why Climate Change is Natural:
"65) The globe’s current approach to climate change in which major industrialised countries agree to nonsensical targets for their CO2 emissions by a given date, as it has been under the Kyoto system, is very expensive."
"71) Despite the 1997 Kyoto Protocol’s status as the flagship of the fight against climate change it has been a failure. "
-okay, so the Kyoto Protocol has been unsuccessful, that's why countries are meeting in Copenhagen right now
79) Since the cause of global warming is mostly natural, then there is in actual fact very little we can do about it. (We are still not able to control the sun).
-who are they trying to inform here? Preschoolers?
89) It is a myth that CO2 is a pollutant, because nitrogen forms 80% of our atmosphere and human beings could not live in 100% nitrogen either: CO2 is no more a pollutant than nitrogen is and CO2 is essential to life.
-CO2 has NEVER been a pollutant. It is a greenhouse gas, and anthropogenic carbon dioxide HAS and IS contributing to climate change
Sorry, but this article is stupid. Wait I'm not sorry. Climate change is real and it pisses me off that people are still arguing its existence. Citizens of developed nations will have an easy time adapting, but the people that are really going to be affected are the citizens of the Maldives and low-lying nations, not to mention Sub-Saharan women farmers.
climate change is no conspiracy
