"HOWEVER, the rest of us, including myself, are in the middle of this argument, desperately in search for some credible science and FACTS to educate us."
No, you aren't. You might be fooling yourself, but you aren't fooling me.
"And they are trying to convince us that "the debate on CC/GW is over".. OR that GW is on the verge of an "irreversible tipping point" that the planet cannot recover from..
"And neither of those claims are even remotely close to the truth"
Yes, they are, despite the best effort of Koch and Exxon to say otherwise. The scientific debate on AGW is settled; ikt's real, and happening. Only the political science remains unsettled. "The planet cannot recover from" isn't the issue, since, in the long run, it doesn't even need to; new forms of life will eventually evolve. The issue is that the biosphere will become detrimental to my species. True, in the long run, the planet won't miss us, but I'd like to avoid that scenario.
