Of course the naysayers will say it doesn't matter. Well they would, wouldn't they. There is no greater protection from the consequences of climate change than ignorance (wilful or otherwise) and selective blindness. But they will be dead long before the effects of climate change hit their children, their grandchildren and especially their great grandchildren. So why should they care?
First you say -and I agree- that it is all very complex and we need to know much more before accurate predictions are made then you talk as though we know the answers. We don't. The best experts in the world cannot yet agree on very much at all in this complex area. Yes the Artic is warming up and melting. But it has often done that in the past.
And you do not mention that the Antarctic is getting colder and expanding and nobody yet knows why.
You have absolutely no idea whether or not tinkering with cars' CO2 emissions will make matters worse, or better, or make almost no difference at all. Nor do I. Nor does the Professor of Climatology at MIT. But at least he admits to the fact.
