You've never heard of ice sampling or tree rings? They can go back much further than 150 years to get a good idea of how the climate was in the past. It's called good science. You should try it sometime.
I was just about to bring this up. With ice sampling, we can go back as much as 650,000 - 700,000 years ago and measure precisely what was in the air on that day. It's actually a pretty impressive process!
While yes, the Earth's climate does change (dramatically in some cases), the change has never happened this rapidly and there is nothing new occurring naturally to account for it. The only new factor that has been introduced to the planet is man's burning of fossil fuels.
Actually I am surprised Hillary or just the Democrats in general haven't been pushing climate change this election. But it seems like climate change has been "bumped" up to the UN, now the UN will push the matter and make decisions.
Fortunately both the Earth and the scientists investigating the climate of the world are not concerned with what the "Deniers" believe. Their beliefs do not effect what is happening.
This is a situation where I would like to live another thousand years so I could watch what happens. Then I might have enough data to have a good idea what would likely to happen for the next thousand years.

This is absolutely true. They only care who pays their salaries.
I think you are right: climate change isn't being discussed because, as evidenced by this thread, many Americans are uneducated on it. They hold many beliefs that are simply false, and they don't properly appreciate the significance of the problem -- if they recognize there is a problem at all.
Maybe that's because the "scientists" that we pay to play with climate models have totally failed. Maybe that's because millions of us realize that paying scientists to play climate model games is fruitless.
If someone can prove to and show me when the climate wasn't changing, then we'll talk. Till then, don't get brainwashed.
This.
And even if man is the culprit how are we supposed to do anything substantial to fix it when many industrializing countries are not on board?
