Climate change is completely natural.

 

Who are these flat earthers that want to keep the world as it was in 1980?

 

Embrace change. Don't fear it.

we are like an old man peeing in the sea to raise the sea level.

In this global situation, "We" are rich westerners, and we're about  1 billion in number.

 

It's absolutely our responsibility to reduce our impact. 

 

It's not even that hard.

You mean tell those living on islands at risk of being submerged that they shouldn't have bought there? Marshall islanders for example? Folk from Kiribati?

 

You need to look at bit further than the end of your street.

Honest question, would you be prepared to do this,  "end the use of cars, basically stop flying and go onto a vegetarian diet" . A simple yes or no will suffice.

Surely every single Green party voter will do that? We cannot solve climate change, that does not mean it doesnt exist.

... The only way to stop global warming is to, "end the use of cars, basically stop flying and go onto a vegetarian diet" not in my lifetime buddy.

Going on a vegetarian diet will not do much for global warming except help stop deforestation.
