The earth is warming (slightly)
Humans are (somewhat) responsible
The sun plays an integral role in all climate change
The idea that civilization is on the brink of destruction is so-far unsupported.

These are my expert opinions

Same as mine, and after the sun's role in climate change I would add water vapor's role in climate regulation. Geologically speaking, we are always on the brink of destruction since a new ice age or optimum could pop up in a century or so. The CO2 we add to the atmosphere does not do much to change the equation either way.
