"There is great controversy as to whether human beings have changed the climate, " said Professor McManus. "But there is no doubt about the fact that human beings have changed the Earth's atmosphere. The increased levels of greenhouse gases are geologically incredible."
He added: "It is something of grave concern to someone like me, who sees the strong connection between greenhouse gases and climate in the past."
It amazes me that some still 'believe' we have not contributed to this event by our destruction of the Earth's boreal forests.

There is no doubt that we affected the atmosphere of the planet by the removal of our boreal and our austral forests. Those were the biggest contributers of oxygen on our planet and we ridded ourselves on them. It's no wonder why we're getting less and less healthy. There's a lack of oxygen in our enviroment to run on.
However, there isn't conclusive enough evidence to state whether we've changed our evirons or not with greenhouse gasses. We only contribue less than 5% of all global pollution. The rest is done by mother nature herself with her sulphurous volcanoes.
