Climate change might be underway, but it is not man-made. Evidence of climate change has been observed on Mars and Jupiter (shrinking ice caps and changing storm patterns, respectively). The sun drives climate change, not human activity.

It may be easier to stipulate that climate change is real and anthropogenic, but to do so would be promulgating a lie.

The scientific question is actually a side issue. The issue being argued is a political one.

Politicians are using (one side) of the scientific debate as PRETEXT for a massive reconfiguring of our entire economy. And they ADMIT this massive reconfiguration will have almost NO affect on the hypothetical CO2 increase.

If you want to effect political change focus on the political fight.

Our governor's fixation on green technology is the one of the main things hindering Michigan's economy at this point. We have a GOP controlled state and the economy should be booming. It has improved but not nearly as much as it would if it weren't for Rick Snyder and his Ann Arbor based inner circle who don't want any filthy factories polluting the place, They're fixated on windmills and high speed rail instead. They call them "Free market solutions" despite the taxpayer subsidies.

If I were governor, I'd throw the doors open wide to all industry. I'd have been in the CEO's office of every east coast gun maker talking them about about how much easier it would be to move to Michigan than states further away. I'd remind them that we're now a RTW state and that all along the I94 corridor people want work and will take less than union scale to get it.
