I hear a lot of arguments from the few opponents of global warming like "the climate may be changing but humans didn't cause it" or just "the climate isn't changing." The former tends to use "proof" indicating that the world is just too big for people to have any affect on global climate. Well, it occurred to me this morning to think about this a new way.

Let's ignore arguments about whether humans are affecting the climate and focus on the fact that the climate is indeed getting warmer. Lets also focus on the established fact that the last time the climate was as warm as it's likely to get, there were giant lizards roaming the earth. I don't want that. Therefore, even if humans are not causing climate change, it would be beneficial to those who don't wan't to be eaten by raptors if humans attempted to stop climate change.
