"Here is a plan, prove that Global Warming is happening and if it is let capitalism fix it."

The Left has stolen the language, and are using it against us. One important way of fighting back is to take the language back - by using appropriate, exact words. Global Warming (or the latest 'Climate Change') IS happening. Recorded temperatures from thermometers are slightly higher today than they were a century ago. What is NOT happening is Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming. These words are very important.
Catastrophic means that the results are drastic and must be addressed immediately.
Anthropogenic means caused by humans.
Global Warming means temperatures are going up.

Whereas, Global Warming and Climate Change simply mean there is a continuing of the climate that has existed for the last four and a half billion years, or so on earth.

The recorded Global Warming (Climate Change) for the last century is the equivalent of moving from Toledo Ohio to Dayton Ohio. Similarly, the same as moving a couple dozen feet higher on a hill side. If that new climate bothers you, you may have to move back now that it's cooling down, again. The crops that feed the world will grow in both locations.

So, let's be consistent with the words:

Global Warming (and it's latest brother Climate Change) - Ho Hum
Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming - Ain't Happenin'

Most people don’t know the difference and will confuse them. You are right about taking back the language and using it against them.

Trump used it against them yesterday in his speech. The windmill joke was delicious.

I don't know about that. The "dust bowl" happened in the 1920s
