It is not a fact that the climate is changing at an unprecedented rate.  What is a fact is that many people have been led to believe that is is changing at an unprecedented rate.  There is no data that shows we are warming at an unprecedented rate.  This is rhetoric.  The planet is warming at a steady predicable rate.  The oceans are not rising at an unprecedented rate.   The Maldives are still there. So is Florida.  Nobody is drowning in Bangladesh.  We had a year of increased Hurricane activity followed by several years of below normal hurricane activity.  The sky is not falling.  And guess what?  If we were not warming, then we would be cooling. Is that what we want?  Who says what the correct temperature for the planet should be?
