Be that as it may, it is difficult to refute the fact that the climate
is warming when faced with overwhelming facts that support that
contention. I don't believe anyone is able to refute that.


I've heard nobody trying to refute that fact. What's being refuted is the
claim that human activity is the primary cause of global warming.


It's good to see that we agree on the fundamental premise. Of course
the human-cause aspect of the issue is only inferred, so it is subject
to interpretation.

Despite that, it seems only prudent to do what we can to retard the
rate of climate change for our own good. And in the process, if we
are able to reduce our dependence on oil and advance the trend toward
renewable energy, which is inevitable, we advance technological
development in a healthier direction, in my opinion.
