Climate change is a global crisis that scientific consensus holds is driven by human activities. NASA and IPCC data confirm a 1.1°C temperature rise, causing melting ice, rising seas, and extreme weather that threaten ecosystems, food security and coastal communities, and could lead to severe economic damage. Urgent action — cutting emissions, expanding renewables, and enforcing the Paris Agreement — is critical to limit warming to 1.5°C and prevent irreversible impacts.
Climate change is overstated and driven by natural cycles rather than human activity. Historical temperature fluctuations predate industrialization, and Antarctic ice has expanded in some areas. IPCC models exaggerate warming, and NASA's short-term data ignores geological trends. Sea-level rise (3.7 mm/year) is manageable, yet economic costs are inflated to justify restrictive policies. Alarmist narratives distract from practical solutions like innovation and adaptation.
