I don't try to pretend that I know anything for a fact.
The problem is there's way too much information and misinformation on both sides of the coin which makes it hard to know who to believe, and one is left to basically pick a side.

I would say that if you don't know and plead ignorance, it would be safest to listen to the vast majority of scientists and not opinions of politicians and other people that really have no clue (which, honestly, is most of us). I'm not going to claim to understand all the nitty gritty of it. But the people who study it everyday are telling me/us it's happening and it's being made exponentially worse by human industrialization. That's good enough for me.
