I think being too quick to dismiss climate change as pure political propaganda is equally as foolish as any blind assumption that the sky's falling and it's all man's fault. It can't possibly be all one thing or all the other - the truth is likely somewhere in the middle.

The more I read, the more it seems like a scale of natural balance may have been tipped by man's doing, sort of like the first domino in a long chain not requiring much effort to push over. I find out later that such thinking was in error, I'd be wholly relieved, for it'd be a great thing to be proven wrong about.

Bottom line, if you hear a noise in the kitchen in the middle of the night, most people just go and check it out, without first needing to contemplate what any rigid sociopolitical ideology has to say on the matter.
