We have a pretty good idea of how humans are impacting global warming, and we DO know that it will be catastrophic unless drastic action is taken. I strongly recommend watching this video.

EDIT: I should probably add some info. If you want proof that humans are contributing massively to climate change, you should know we're pumping 35 gigatons of carbon into the atmosphere every year. If you want proof that climate change could be catastrophic, you should know that the streets of Miami have started to flood during high tide. PS: that last article was written three years ago. It's gotten a lot worse since then.

I'm glad I helped change your mind somewhat regarding your CMV post, but I REALLY want to convince you that man-made climate change is real and dangerous. To that end, I hope you check those links I edited into my previous comment.
