I expect that most will disagree, but I think that it's certain that climate is changing and it will continue to get worse, until most governments, especially the "western" powers, who have the most money and happen to cause the most energy to be consumed, and cause the most negative side effects on climate and ecology.
I'm a "scientist" without the usual credentials. I took lots of science in HS and college, then got my first degree in a "social science"- psychology. Before long I got a BS in computer science, later an Associate degree in Nursing.
I appeal to your caring for others- whether your family and future generations or people in general, as God would want you to if you are a Christian.
One place you can look to for recent proof is an online organization - The Scientist which has an environmental section you can find at https://www.the-scientist.com/tag/environment. Having studied some science, or otherwise have acquired some scientific terminology will help.
I recently moved from Colorado where I lived near forest fires to the west in the Front Range, and east in a dry windy neighborhood where a whole community had to evacuate as fast as possible.
Thanks for reading my whole article. Bless you and thank you for your service!

I don't deny the climate is changing. It always has. It always will.
I remain unconvinced that:
_anthropogenic forces are the primary cause of that change.
_that climate change is inherently bad or good. It just is.
For example:
_the flip side of increased mortality from heat waves may be decreased mortality from cold waves.
_some regions may benefit from the earlier onset of spring and from a longer warm season that is suitable for growing crops,
_studies show that, up to a certain point, crops and other plants grow better in the presence of higher carbon dioxide levels and seem to be more drought-tolerant
_shipping commerce will benefit from the opening of the Northwest Passage for longer periods of the year due to the loss of Arctic sea ice.
_The Arctic, Antarctic, Siberia, and other frozen regions of the earth might experience more plant growth and milder climates.
_Previously untapped oil and gas reserves might become available.
Finally, man is most creative when "problems" arise. If man can unintentionally change the weather in unforeseen ways. Before long, man will find ways to intentionally change weather in intentional ways.
