Well there's really no need to now, you already did my work for me. The chart you posted clearly shows a 60 year cycle in play, and the next low in temperatures is expected sometime around 2059. That's when they should start rising again. I just figured since every time I do post charts and post proof right in front of people's faces, they usually just ignore it because they have nothing smart to say in response, and so I end up wasting my time so I figured why bother. Anyhow, I never denied that humans contribute to climate change, that is why I said in my first post that the highs are higher and the lows are higher as well in each cycle, which means the trend is up. in part because of human involvement.

The point that I was trying to make is that while humans may play a role one can't ignore the fact there's other factors in play here as well. Regardless of the extent of human involvement in global warming, whatever one believes - that it is extreme, minimal or anywhere inbetween, we should of course try to minimize it as much as possible.  At the same time there has to be a balance - we should try and do everything we can to contribute to it as minimally as possible if not at all, while at the same time living our life and still allowing progress.

Well, I figured you would probably post your usual twenty paragraphs, and I thought that I answered my own question, it would save me from having to scroll down later.

Can't be helped, takes many words to explain simple things to some.

Here is the thing. The scientific community does not deny that the planet is subject to cycles. The earth is oblate spheroid, I.e. not perfectly spherical, which travels around the sun in an elliptical orbit, all the while rotating at the equator, at the speed 1000 mph. So saying the earth moves in cycles is not exactly news. What the scientific community is saying however, is that the current rate of climate change is happening outside of what any of the regular cycles would account for. Scientists don't claim every single major weather event is the result of climate change, but they do claim that there is now overwhelming evidence linking climate change and the increasing number of severe weather events.
