Good for you. I don't put much stock in armchair experts myself. And I have personally observed changes in climate on my family's property before talk of climate change became common. Had no word for it at the time except to notice things were different than they used to be for my grandparents.
On the other hand, mankind has developed sciences that have put men on the moon.... an achievement. And in those expert minds I put a good deal of faith. Wishful thinking never accomplishes much. This wold have never before had 7+ billion energy hungry people on it. We as a species are elevated above animals largely by our ability to burn things. We are expert at burning stuff. Best analogy I can come up with is to sit in your closed garage with the car engine running and let me know how that works out. Our atmosphere is very, very thin... only a few miles.
Hawaii is still about the best place I can think of to watch what happens next.

Assume the best and ask questions.
