On Sept. 30, Randy Rossi said that climate change is a natural phenomenon that has been occurring for millions of years so basically don't worry. It has nothing to do with human activities. He has studied the issue. So have others.

1. NASA warns that global warming is real and unequivocally due to human activity.

2. The National Academy of Science and Engineering states the same thing and that it's due to "human activity" and not natural change.

3. In November 2017, Bioscience reported that 15,364 scientists signed a scholarly paper warning of global climate change.

4. The journal "Science" reports that 21 scientists from 14 countries say climate change damaging the planet is due to human activity.

I could go on, but I think you get the idea.

I'll put my money on the tens of thousands of real scientists who have studied this.
