The climate debate has never been whether "climate change is real." That's a strawman.
If someone pretends that's what the debate is about, they're just trying to con you.
The debate is over it's effects.

You needn't fear "melting ice caps."
There're only 2 ice sheets on Earth:
1. Antarctica averages < -40°, so it's in no danger of melting.
2. Greenland loses ice most years, but the rate is not detectably accelerating. It's equivalent to 3-4 inches of sea-level rise per…

…you thought I was going to say "year," didn't you?
No, not year.
Not decade, either.
It's PER CENTURY: Greenland's ice melt (the largest source of sea-level rise) causes 3-4 inches of sea-level rise per CENTURY.

Anthropogenic climate change has not worsened droughts, either. Like all the other ills blamed on CO2 and manmade climate change, droughts are not getting worse. The measurements prove it:

What's more, drought IMPACTS are diminishing, because CO2 makes plants more more water-efficient and drought-resistant.

Droughts still happen, of course, but their consequences used to be much WORSE than they are now. Droughts used to cause MASSIVE famines. But such famines are fading from living memory.

Hurricanes are not worsening, either. NONE of the major harms predicted from CO2 emissions & manmade climate change are actually happening. Sea-level rise, hurricanes, tornadoes, droughts, fires — not even ONE of them have significantly worsened.

Climate grifters are constantly blaming things on "climate change" which haven't actually gotten any worse. They're just plain lying to you. The data show that hurricanes and tropical cyclones are not worsening.

Severe tornadoes have declined dramatically.
Nobody knows why.
(If it was a bad thing, climate grifters would blame it on "climate change." But because it's a good thing, they never do.)

Nor are temperatures becoming more extreme.
Among climatologists it is common knowledge that "global warming" isn't very global. It mostly makes frigid winter nights a bit milder at high latitudes. In other words, it makes climate more equable.

"Global" warming only slightly warms the tropics. That's nice, because they're warm enough already.
High latitude warming is very beneficial, because cold temperatures are far more dangerous than hot temperatures.

The "climate emergency" is a scam. The scientific evidence is compelling that manmade global warming is real, but modest & benign, and CO2 emissions are very beneficial.
Scientists call warm periods, like our current climate, “climate optimums.”
