Prove it.

No, the subject is anthropogenic global climate change. For you intellectually
limited people, that means human caused global climate change.

The data just isn't there to prove humans have caused global climate change to
any significant amount, nor is there any evidence that we can do anything to
"fix" the climate.

Just this week Al Gore was invited to debate the issue, but begged out because
he'd rather flay all over the globe making money off his global warming
hysteria.
