If this climate change thing is real, then yes, it is still happening. For the last thirty years or so, there has been an outcry about cutting down the rain forest. So now it is pretty much cut down, and the wood was burned, and the resulting excess of CO2 in the atmosphere is causing problems. That is the issue in a nutshell. There is no switch to turn it off. The people who warned us obviously failed to get our attention. And the resulting consequences for our indecision are now upon us. That is the deal.
