Care to explain what your source is for this:

"97% of all scientists agree that climate change is due to human action"

Maybe your right, but can you list a reference for your statement?

http://climate.nasa.gov/scientific-consensus/

That's from NASA, but here's an article posted just 3 days ago from Salon http://www.salon.com/2014/08/11/yet_another_study_confirms_the_overwhelming_scientific_consensus_on_climate_change/

It changes between 97 and 98. Either way.

Ok, I agree with those references....

The question is: What do we do about this?  Do we stop driving our cars?  Do we stop using electricity? 

I for one, believe we should transistion from burning pure gasoline in our cars to driving cars that either run on batteries or run on E85, a fuel that is 15% gasoline and 85% ethanol.  Also,  we should extend tax incentives, and low interest loans to companies building wind and solar farms.  Lastly,  we should fully fund advanced research into projects like ITER.  What say you?

I don't have a full answer sadly, I'm not too well versed in how to solve the climate change problem. But I believe that switching to green energy sources is a major step.
