Because I can't let you go unchecked saying false things.
I laid out a hypothetical point to make a case, nothing more. It required no "proving" because it was simply a note on skepticism. It wasn't false, because it was an opinion. You are either an artifact level troll or one of the least intelligent people on the Internet. Again, a lovely combination of the two I think.

I think the Earth is flat.

Yeah, opinions can be wrong too ;)

Data for what? Linking solar flares to climate change? That was a hypothetical, obviously. Well, obvious to most people I guess. You're kind of an outlier when it comes to understanding my points.
The irregularity of the solar flare phenomenon is a valid contributor to the relationship of climate changes... that just makes scientific sense when considering the relationship of heat and solar radiation within the upper atmosphere!!
it is something that should not be so easily discounted!! especially when considering size relationships of both planetary bodies

couple this with pole shifts... earthquake affects.. sea current movements and land mass(mountainous ranges) shifting out of alignment a number of degrees causing wind variances etc etc.. can have a huge affect on climate!!
It is definately not far fetched.. nor a stretch of scientific possibility.
unfortunately... scientists have been lazy, and have settled for the Blame humankind, and while were at it.. well fleece them for some money(government regulations) too!!

You just named the main driver behind the climate "crisis:" $$$ redistribution.

Once more, got anything more than baseless conjectures? On another note, solar activity hasn't increased enough to account for the warming observed, actually, scientists have studied the effects of many factors in climate change, for example, in "Anthropogenic and natural warming inferred from changes in Earth’s energy balance." on Nature, the authors estimate the forcing effect of several factors including solar, surprise, surprise, it's a minor cause.

Correct which has nothing to do with the other statements you made (it explicitly shows increasing temperature graphs), besides, Morbad already showed several flaws on it.
Listen, if I come across some of the papers I read about it I will post it here, however I didn’t save the links and it doesn’t change the facts that nothing is black or white or as the mainstream media say it is.

I’m not here to win an internet argument as I already got an opinion and nothing will change unless I see some trustworthy evidence.

Until then, have a wonderful day!

I really wonder what is trustworthy evidence for you, not that there are thousands of peer-reviwed papers agreeing AGW is a thing through multiple methods.

I don't believe "winning an argument" here will change that much ;)

What would you consider "trustworthy evidence"? As Gregg mentioned, there is an almost unprecedented scientific consensus about global warming being a serious problem and it being caused by human activity. The media often quotes science wrong, and they try to survive by having you and I clicking a headline, so the more sensational the headline, the bigger the chance that we'll bite the bait. That does not change however, that there is a larger consensus on AGW than there is about many subjects that you would consider proven and tested.

Realizing AGW and it's potential and likely consequences is tough. It will put most people through an existential crisis, but there's no way of solving it until we all agree that it's a problem. Whether that will happen is much more uncertain.
 
I just want to know if there's any scientific consensus that Miami "will not exist in a few years."

Instead of bashing skeptics, perhaps you guys should be getting on the cases of those (pundits/writers/politicians) who shamelessly harness fear by distorting facts (or more likely pulling "facts" right out of their posteriors) in order to gain power, control and wealth. There will not be a constructive conversation with people like me until you guys get your house in order, because outside of fun forum PvP I simply don't plan on changing my life based on bad faith arguments.

Probably not.
Uh huh. Then why isn't the climate change movement including you here and now condemning this kind of nonsense? You gleefully waste your ammunition on people whom aren't the problem, yet you turn a blind eye to all the fear mongers and blatant hypocrites whose lifestyles put the lie to what they preach for public consumption. Seems pretty hypocritical to me.
 



Trustworthy is an organization or person who is not connected to any political group or private person, very few around these days.
 
An interesting report on the dangers of Sulphur hexafluoride that is used in many things including wind turbines etc:

'Climate change: Electrical industry's 'dirty secret' boosts warming':


It's the most powerful greenhouse gas known to humanity, and emissions have risen rapidly in recent years, the BBC has learned.

Sulphur hexafluoride, or SF6, is widely used in the electrical industry to prevent short circuits and accidents. But leaks of the little-known gas in the UK and the rest of the EU in 2017 were the equivalent of putting an extra 1.3 million cars on the road.

Levels are rising as an unintended consequence of the green energy boom. Cheap and non-flammable, SF6 is a colourless, odourless, synthetic gas. It makes a hugely effective insulating material for medium and high-voltage electrical installations.

It is widely used across the industry, from large power stations to wind turbines to electrical sub-stations in towns and cities. It prevents electrical accidents and fires. However, the significant downside to using the gas is that it has the highest global warming potential of any known substance. It is 23,500 times more warming than carbon dioxide (CO2).

Just one kilogram of SF6 warms the Earth to the same extent as 24 people flying London to New York return.

It also persists in the atmosphere for a long time, warming the Earth for at least 1,000 years.

Sounds kind of crazy, and probably not what we should be using?!!

Balance in all things. Let's not pretend that safety and fire prevention aren't worth considering.

Pretending an issue doesn't exist is as much of a problem as exagerating it. I do not read mainstream articles because I know they exagerate everything which I already said.

That'd make virtually any and all research "untrustworthy" yet it definetly is not, then again, why do you think papers are peer-reviewed and results retested?

BTW, those are just media outlets which I thought you guys hated unless they happen to (hardly) support your beliefs.

Edit: After some digging I found out that the source for the first article you quoted mentioned the following:

"This work was supported by California state funds to the Scripps Institution of Oceanography."

The second article was written and based on studies by the Swiss National Science Fondation.

The third article mentioned the following:

"To learn more about how such tiny variations in solar energy might impact terrestrial climate, the National Research Council (NRC) convened dozens of experts in many fields, such as plasma physics, solar activity, atmospheric chemistry, fluid dynamics and energetic particle physics."

Most people would agree that grotesque mischaracterization of a problem in order to stoke panic is a bigger problem.
