It seems a lot of the debate centers around whether climate change is happening, or whether it's manmade or a natural cycle.

But assuming it IS happening and it IS because of us, what exactly would the solution be?

Enact policies to curb carbon emissions and encourage the development of alternative energy sources (aside: why do all you global warming hippies geek over solar and wind and not suggest the obvious pragmatic tech of nuclear power?)? Do we force other countries to do the same? Go to war over it?

The earth warming up and cooling down is a natural cycle humans don't have control over.

We're not going to change anyone's mind who says it's entirely a manmade problem. But as a thought experiment I'd like to propose that hypothetically it IS manmade and play through the proposed solution.

Because frankly I think the solutions to global warming/climate change are weak and pie in the sky. If you really think the world has this problem, more wind power would not be the fucking solution you saved the world with.

Give us that climate change tax we've made up, goym!

This is what I'm saying dude. It doesn't really hold water. I'd like to hear a climate alarmists' take.

You won’t, they will just parrot links to pro-left fearmongering propaganda.
