""Environmentalists" Will not be happy until we live like we did back in the 1700's. "
False. Please stop lying. It's also a strawman. please learn to think.
" We shouldn't care about these people, "
The people who don't exist? The environmentalist you just made up?

", is lowering our damage, and finding new technology that can keep or improve our quality of life and use less Carbon while doing this."
That is what environmentalist want.

Yes, it is. Sorry to take away you excuse to be a lazy ass wipe.

haha, I kid.
I'm not sorry at all.

"are tightly linked to the climate change events we are experiencing today."
er, duh. This is predicted outcome from increases see level temperature.

The current climate change is a direct result from having more CO2 in the air then can be removed through the normal cycle.
Sun Spot impact to earth temperature are very minimal and very temporary.
Hint: The outer Atmosphere isn't heating, and the rise in temperature does no go back down during cooler period of sun cycles.
Couple of facts:
1) CO2 is 'transparent' to visible light.
2) CO2 is 'opaque' it infra red frequency
3) visible light hits the earth and changes into infra red light.
4) Lower atmosphere are warming and a faster rate then the entire history of humanity.
5) There is more CO2 in the air then the entire history of humanity.
6) We measure the energy out[put from the sun pretty well. It's cvariat is not eough to explain current warming and when it is in a lower energyu output cycle the temperature does not return to previous low energy cycle amounts.

So we know, for a FACT it's internal.
We also know how CO2 behaves.

So unless you have some other explanation that doesn't involve magic, shut the hell up. You are doing nothing but adding to a manufacturversy.

Why should it? In 1975(just before the Brazilian Freeze Coffee (an 8 oz cup) on average was 30 cents, 50 cents a year later)
From http://www.westegg.com/inflation/infl.cgi

What cost $.30 in 1975 would cost $1.26 in 2012.

A Tall at Starbucks* is 1.35. And it's in a coffee specialty store, not a Denny's like restaurant.

*I'm not a fan of Starbucks, I use them becasue they are pretty much everywhere.
