We're talking about man-made climate change, dillweed. Has the climate changed through time without human input? OF COURSE! Will it change in the future without it? Without a doubt.

So that's just a straw man.

Add in the man made contribution, and the changes can, when they go along with the natural trend, become much MORE dramatic. When they go against it, they may mute the effects OF the natural trend.

But, all you wingnuts want to do is play gotcha. Fits right in with your politics.

"Do you think THAT is "climate change" or "global warming" or is it just what the earth does sometimes?"

An amusing example. You do know that the southward extension of the Sahara is due to deforestation caused by humans?
