Im a skeptic in that I think a large portion of the change we cant fix, without risking side effects that would make things much worse.

The UK Meteorology Office ( one of only 3 agencies who keep global temperature data) has stated the Earth hasn't warmed in 15 years
http://www.newsnet5.com/dpp/weather/weather_news/United-Kingdom-Meteorology-Office-declares-Earth-hasnt-warmed-in-15-years
These are the East Anglia white coats who have been pushing the carbon-trading snakeoil of "AWG"
If they are saying warming has stopped then its time for them to come up with a new scheme.
No one is denying that climate change happens. History is replete with warming and cooling periods over the millenia. The cause for these changes has been the sun and that is where man needs to focus his attention to understand temperature trending on this planet becuase there is nothing man can do that can compare to the colossal influence the Sun has on our planet.

See, my suspicion is that anyone who talks about "climate change deniers" actually also has zero tolerance for your position.
The term "climate change denier" is almost exclusively used by folks who are dead set in the belief that man is solely responsible for climate change. Anyone who does not fully believe, as they do, that man is the sole cause of climate variation is a "denier".

Response from the Met Office to this article:
http://metofficenews.wordpress.com/2012/01/29/met-office-in-the-media-29-january-2012/
Quote:
[...]
This article includes numerous errors in the reporting of published peer reviewed science undertaken by the Met Office Hadley Centre and for Mr. Rose to suggest that the latest global temperatures available show no warming in the last 15 years is entirely misleading.
[...]
“However, what is absolutely clear is that we have continued to see a trend of warming, with the decade of 2000-2009 being clearly the warmest in the instrumental record going back to 1850. Depending on which temperature records you use, 2010 was the warmest year on record for NOAA NCDC and NASA GISS, and the second warmest on record in HadCRUT3.â€
[...]
So in short: You've been fooled.

The criteria for being a "denier" is rejecting the science behind global warming, and by extension, believing that 95% of climatologists are either stupid or criminally corrupt.

So, if we lower the global temperature, we can dismantle the tornado warning system because they will never happen in populated areas?

Yes, 1998 was abnormally high so the 15-year average is about flat because of it. Up through 2008, the deniers were all about how the Earth hadn't warmed for 10 years, as then you only needed the 10 year window to keep 1998 in it.
