Do global warming "skeptics" honestly see us as a benign species?

For example. everyone of your points deserves an extended answer, rather than just ignoring them, And when I get time and energy, I will do so.

The fact that other inter-glacial periods hit higher peak temperatures than we have today might lead someone to conclude that we were due for higher temps all along, and that this is just a natural series of events.

@wolfpup

We’ve increased the atmosphere’s CO2 level more in the past couple of hundred years than natural glacial terminations do in ten thousand years, and moreover, we’ve introduced this increment *on top of * what had been a normal interglacial level of 280 ppm at the beginning of industrialization.

@wolfpup

Climatically, this puts us in an entirely new climate era never before seen in human history, and indeed never seen before at all since the onset of rapid glaciation at the mid-Pliocene transition 1.2 million years ago, with CO2 levels possibly already the highest in 15 million years and no end in sight.

@wolfpup

Hopefully that helps introduce a more realistic perspective. The 100-year trend isn’t the “proof” of what we’re doing to the climate; it’s the first emergent empirical evidence of the consequences of the measured forcings that we know are occurring, and which have a very long way to go to equilibrium even if we stopped all GHG emissions tomorrow.

I have stated clearly that EVEN IF THE WARMING ISN’T DISASTROUS there is every reason to believe IT COULD FUCK UP THE OCEANS. This is more than enough to be seriously motivated to solve the problem, speaking for myself of course.
I am 100% dedicated to ending the CO2 increase before it reaches dangerous levels.
