Dear Anonymous Coward. Your assertions that the modelling is that crude; the only suitable response is to call out your claims as "a load of bollocks". Cursory googling turns many, well peer reviewed papers linking changes in atmospheric conditions to composition of the atmosphere. As opposed to Fox news hyperbole as you appear to be a fan of. I highly recommend you go and read the late David Mackays book, sustainable energy without the hot air. It's freely downloadable, and if you have any role whatsoever in industry, you have no excuse not to read it.

The world doesn't care one jot for our little argument on the El Reg's forums, and one suspects we will have to agree to disagree. Nor the thousands of similar arguments found all over social media. Our collective industrial actions have and, and will continue to have an impact on the climate and the environment. Addressing that is a laudable goal. Unless, on a long enough time frame, you want our successors to live in a wasteland.

Besides climate change, the economic and geopolitical advantages of independence from oil and gas are highly valuable, and make a good case for changing irrespective of belief in climate change.If you aren't persuaded by either of these arguments, then you are entitled to your opinion!
