I firmly believe that scientists should ignore the "Social Sciences" and stick to facts. There is nothing more egregious to me than "corrected" research facts. Collect data in the most accurate method that you can and simply allow others to formulate conclusions, as they will. I am not an expert on climate or the sun, however I am an avid student of history. I believe that there is a convincing possibility that human beings are not nearly as influential on this planet as some would have us believe. If there is likely to be a great influencer on this planets climate and weather, I find it more highly probable that it is the sun. We are not driving this bus, we are merely along for the ride. I think it is the apex of hubris to believe that we can impact this world in any manner that approaches the magnitude of what the sun, the moon and even the internal cycles of the very planet we reside on have. All of that being said, I do not suggest that we spoil the environment. We owe it to ourselves and out fellow creatures on this planet to husband the environment as best we can while doing our best to survive with the most prosperity that we can do that one day we can improve our species survival chances. In the meantime, try to educate those reasonable folks around you to prepare for the worst and hope for the best. I believe that is the best we can do.
