I know of very few people who are truly anti-environmental ... Practical environmental protection and realistic sustainable development is accepted and expected from practically everyone today; and almost everyone would agree that we need to diversify energy sources and be more efficient with the energy we use for a wide variety of reasons including environmental protection.
Skepticism about the level of impact humans are having to changing our climate seems to be a healthy rational and scientific reaction to the unrealistic predictions based on unproven computer models developed by biased individuals and fed manipulated data that have consistently predicted higher temperatures than we have observed. Even if it is true that production of CO2 is impacting our climate, if the climate sensitivity to a doubling of CO2 is closer to what has been observed in a lab (1 degree) or what can be inferred from real world observations (0.6 degrees) rather than the alarmist predictions of 3 to 6 degrees, it is highly unlikely that we could ever produce enough CO2 in an economical way to increase the world's temperature by 2 degrees over current levels; because that would take us producing over 7 times current levels based on lab observations, and over 15 times current levels based on real world data, because humans account for less than 50% of the CO2 in the atmosphere today.
