Both you and Vic seem to be stretching the requirements of something to be scientific proof (perhaps on purpose).

It is not possible to prove the non-existence of something. It is this basic premise that has allowed religions to survive. However, it is possible to prove the existence of something. I can prove to you that the sun will rise tomorrow given a set of constraints. I can prove the existence of blood in the human body. I can prove that the boiling point of water is approx 100 deg C. More importantly, I can prove that the earth is warming (or at least, has warmed). Just because people are blind to science, scientific proof and the scientific method, does not make it any less correct.

However, so far as I'm aware, there is anything but proof that climate change is predominantly man-made and of a magnitude that should cause us concern. There's certainly no proof that humans will not be adaptable enough to overcome any changes.
