   Says who?  You??  Here's the history of climate science:

   Once again, if Arctic Sea disappears during some summer in the 2030s or   
   40s, how would you explain that?!  I will probably be dead for the   
   latter period, and, so, I will never know how things turn out, and   
   ultimately, no one who is alive today will know, either, at least for   
   the full extent of things.  Of course, those who are alive a century or   
   two from now will know more than we do today.
