"First of all, correct punctuation and capitalization makes reading your arguments much easier."

No offense friend but i don't need your advice, i like to write my arguments in a frenzy of typing that i rearly check and that ain't changin any time soon, so if you don't like don't read it.

"Secondly, there needs to be a legitimate amount of evidence in support of global warming for there to be any changes at all to the United States' infrastructure. "

What are you even trying to say here?

"The fact is, America is in a horrible place right now."

I think some fo the coutnries you have destroyed by warfare both military and economic are much wrose places to be.

" The last thing we need is to be paying way too much for light bulbs and who knows what else"

Listen my friend i hold two masters degrees in engineering, and one is in sustainable energy engineering you clearly don't know what you're talking about.

" Even if global warming is true, why is it such a huge problem"

Again a clear demonstration that you have absolutely no idea what your talking about.

"We as humans are incredible at adapting to different environments"

Really try going to Dehli in the summer when it approaches 52 degrees celsius, see how adaptable you are to that, then try to picture it 4 degress hotter.

If your saying you don't mind 5 or billion peoepl dying during the process of adpatation fair enough.

"And also, the burden of proof lies with those who claim there is global warming"

Ya thats why there is an unending supply of evidence that prioves it, please stop trying to debate on an issue you clearly no nothing about.

"The ones that think it doesn't exist don't have to prove anything"

Do you spread this kind of vile misinformation often?

Have you by any chance ever cracked a scientific journal to read about global warming? Because there are countless articles that make it highly probably climate change is manmade; they are peer-reviewed, sound and numerous. There is a dearth of well-written peer-reviewed articles against man-made climate change, If you have one please inform me because I have YET to read any good ones and, having been recently on your side, read several.

"Even if global warming is true, why is it such a huge problem? We as humans are incredible at adapting to different environments. "

Because it will and already is probably linked to the recent increase in droughts. Also there are many important aspects of life beside our own well-being, like the increasing speed in which coral reefs are depleting due to increased CO2 in the ocean.

"And also, the burden of proof lies with those who claim there is global warming. The ones that think it doesn't exist don't have to prove anything."

Does the burden of proof still lie on those that espouse evolution? It certainly did when Darwin released Origin, but he fulfilled his obligation alone with that screed, and now the burden of proof lies on those that deny evolution.

The same goes for climate-change; over 15 years of very good data has been published mostly pointing to the same conclusion. No longer does the burden of proof lie upon the shoulders of climatologists.

It lies on the fools who seem to be unable to get through a few journal articles.

Science deals with PROBABILITIES not certainties. What the overwhelming majority shows us is that man-made climate change is highly probable. Disputing this without any evidence is the apogee of moronia and scientific ignorance.
