Simply put: Nature wants to low us down to the level of the other animals, or at least tries to put us in the situation where we have to think about all this.
Tornadoes, Tsunamis, Hurricanes all that are simply raising because of the 'sudden' raise of the temperature of earth, and the cause of it.. You know it already. Soon enough we get those storms daily.

In or around 1981 ish, ships started crashing into rocks and shorelines that they never use to. The cause was found to be the planet tipping on its axis which threw out star navigation so causing these accidents to happen.
The planet "tipping" on its axis? The Earth is on an axis and the axis is on an angle, but I don't think it happened just like that?
Anyways, thanks, Adoado.

Let's build a flat scaled model of our earth A cylinder 10 mt diameter and 0.25 mt height , full of air Big cities such as New York, London, Paris etc are small circles abt 0.5 cm diameter The total surface of the big and the small circles is less than 0.01% of the surface of the earth The circles emit some smoke If your model is realistic you need a magnifying glass to see it Well catastrophic ecologists claim that this smoke can modify the climate inside the cylinder I have some doubt

i'm not sure what to say.. you cant use those kinds of "common sense" arguements to dispute actual science.
Since i assume you havent read the various papers, reports, studies, etc, I dont see how you can even begin to understand the issues at hand. Why do people assume that they are qualified to judge a scientific theory if they really know nothing about it? This is same problem with creationists.
There are indeed scientists who dispute some aspects of the climate change theories, but they do so by using more science. There are some doubts too about the extent of climate change caused by artificial means, but not because "New York looks so small on a map"...this is silly.
Its not about how big the city is, its about the volume of emissions released over time. There is no question that the global climate is becoming warmer, and that human activities are partly responsible. The question is how much..
