    I wonder if you have read about Milankovic Cycles. This is completely valid and topical science, and also uses ice-core data as a support. This ice-core data would place us smack in the middle of an Ice Age (3,000 years overdue in fact). Maybe this is worth looking into.
    I see you are doing some research on the topic. Good for you. Yes, I did read about Milankovic Cycles, and much much more. It is several years ago now, but I did spend considerable time researching climate change. I did visit many websites. I listened to the arguments on both sides with an open mind, and there was considerable debate, lots and lots of good and false information out there. I eventually concluded that climate change was real and man-made. I was convinced 100% then, and everything since has reinforced my conclusion. It may take you some time to be convinced, but enjoy the journey. I would direct you to one youtuber, potholer54. I found his series of videos to be very useful and entertaining. No doubt there will some skeptics who will claim he is a quack, but make up your own mind.

      Somewhat better, last I heard, the holes had diminished significantly. Go ahead, do some research yourself.
      The improvements are due to international agreements that limited the use of various gases causing the problem.
      Proof that global solutions can help solve our environmental problems.

In this example, last year one could have used the lack of significant hurricanes as evidence against climate change. Did the cool, wet summer in Ontario mean climate change is not real?

        You have to use long term changes over years/decades to support climate change. Sea ice levels in the arctic make for good evidence. Rising sea levels are another. Individual hurricanes don't.
        Thanks Garland, you are correct. There are lots of faulty analysis on the web that confuses weather with climate. You do not see credible climate scientists claiming climate change is the cause of Harvey or Irma. We have had hurricanes long before man-made climate change. Climate change science does predict that hurricanes will become more frequent and severe. Is that not exactly what we are seeing?

          Tonight Trump hosts a working dinner. So, what's for dinner?

          Swamp critters!!!

          The symbolism is unmistakable ... The Donald is serving up the swamp. This, after his rating approval surges upward!

          MAGA!

            Bernie Sanders will be introducing his Healthcare for all plan tomorrow with a dozen or so Democratic co-sponsors.
            A plan that will be a whole lot more popular than the brutal Republican plan that failed recently.

            https://www.washingtonpost.com/power...=.b14a6b64f136

            If Trump wants to really boost his ratings, he should get behind Bernie's plan.

              I defer to republican senator (and licensed MD) Rand Paul for all things healthcare. He and Trump don't quite see eye-to-eye ...I sure hope this gets under control right quick.

                Thank goodness for people like Rex Tillerson who know how to do the right thing when Trump doesn't have a clue:

                      I took that long for Trump's 'think tank' to dream up that lame excuse (no cell signal in Earthquake zone).
                      Trump thought he could leave a voice mail via Twitter... LAME!

                          No. Neil, you are cherry picking poll numbers.
                          43% approval is the latest Rasmussen poll, which is usually the most favourable one for Trump.

                          But, a little history on the Rasmussen poll approval rating
                          Jan 20 Inauguration day - 56%
                          A week ago - 46%
                          Now - 43%

                          At least when I report poll numbers they are averages of numerous polls, including Rasmussen.
                          These poll indexes have had Trump approval numbers in a tight band of between 37% - 40%.
                          As of now - 538 (Ned Silver) - 38.8%, Real Clear Politics - 39.7%
                          It has been in this tight band for several months, little change.

                          You are as bad as CNN, who report only the worst polls for Trump.
