I believe it if it can be proved. And they can't prove it. They have no way to demonstrate that the climate change (if it's happening; this year is being colder than last) is our fault.
As I've said a lot of times already, I'm all for reducing or stoping the waste. Recycle and reuse. Don't take your car when you can walk or use public transport. Don't leave your lights on.
On the same manner, at work, I'm all for reducing emissions and design equipment as environmentaly friendly as possible.
I don't like people scaring me and using "scientific prove" that hasn't been proved to make me do things and act!! I don't like the blackmail!!

I'm sorry, I'm taken... But as I said before, if my bf doesn't propose soon I'll let you know.

That'd be to confuse weather with climate.
Imagine a wavy line running left-to-right. Now tilt it, so the right end is higher than the left. It's still possible for point p on the x-axis to be higher on the y-axis than p+1, though the trend would still be for the values represented on the x-axis to be proporional to those on the y.
Apologies for lack of correct terminology. I hope you get the picture, though.
