"Why care? Jesus is coming soon" should be an option. A lot of climate deniers don't necessarily deny that it's happening, but see it as part of the end times and a sign of the coming of Christ, so they don't think its necessary to do anything about it.
So, if I were an ultra-rich person with my own private jet, and I flew it to dozens of vacation hot spots each year to enjoy the fun in the sun, would that be contributing to the problem much?

Sure it would, but Leo Decaprio's or Al Gore's activities have literally nothing to do with the accuracy of the actual science so it is completely irrelevant to the discussion...

So I guess your willingness to have a discussion has now broken down and from here on out you will just be spouting sound byte answers.... Is there any reason why you wont answer if you agree with your "very honest" scientist on evolution being a hoax as well?
Sure they do, I mean any single individual's contribution to climate change would be vanishingly small taken by itself, it becomes an issue at the aggregate population level though.

The separation of science from money is vitally important.
Trickle down economics is the biggest BS ever give the 1% to 3% no taxes and everybody will benefit from it. We have done it for like 30 yrs it has only gotten the super rich richer that is it nothing else.
Yeah, that's why I said "average" and didn't concern myself with things that happen over hundreds of years.
You don't get to attribute current sea level rise (presently at the lower end of average) to increasing CO2 levels without also connecting the same CO2 to past glaciations and warm periods that occurred without significant changes in CO2 levels.
You do know that greenhouse gases (CO2) are not the only thing that cause the climate to change, right? Or do you?
Climate forcings are different factors that affect the Earth's climate. These "forcings" drive or "force" the climate system to change, according to NOAA.
There are natural forcings and man-made forcings. http://www.accuweather.com/en/weathe...forcings/54094
