The ISCFC is all about reducing our individual and collective contributions to climate change.
But is climate change really happening? Is it mostly caused by human activity, including our production of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases?
In the United States and elsewhere, there are people who are not convinced by the science. But the great thing about science is that we use evidence to evaluate scientific questions. So what is the evidence related to climate change?
Are you or are you not convinced by the majority of climate scientists who say that climate change is real and largely human caused? Why are you convinced/not convinced? What evidence might change your mind one way or the other?

Is Climate Change Real & Human-Caused?
Climate change is real. Scientists have proven it and I've even noticed some changes myself. First of all, global average temperature has increased in recent decades, which has major consequences like disappearing some animal and plant species and ice melting. Next are floods and droughts as well as other natural disasters that are now more frequent than they have ever been. Most of it is caused by greenhouse gases produced by humans. I suppose it means we are the ones that should stop it. We should at least do something to try to slow it down if we can't completely stop it. I'm glad I'm participating in this project because it makes me realise how big is my impact on the environment and I'm learning to care more about our planet. It's too bad that we sometimes forget it's the only one we have.
I agree. However, no one really believes climate change is even real, and are continuing to harm the Earth. The fact that it is real should be told throughout the world. Maybe through that we can begin to to change our habits to make the world a cooler place again.
I agree that climate change is real and is being forgotten from minds as being an important topic. Climate change causes ice caps to melt, regular floods and droughts, diminishing population in animal species, and plant species too. As a solution, we need to spread the the word to highly populated areas to become green and hopefully have and Earth that could live longer to support life.
