I find that very hard to believe. So in the 150 years of intense human industrial activity we've managed to stop an ice age from beginning?
Other scientists say that the climate would be more like it was around 1700, not having changed much since then.

I don't deny that the climate is changing. I just don't buy into the alarmist and exaggerated claims coming from the climate change lobby. And I still haven't gotten a straight answer with scientific backing on how much of climate change is man-made. Nor have I gotten a straight answer with any scientific backing on how much any of what the climate change lobby wants to impose on us through taxation and more government control will actually achieve.
