To me the climate change debate has a simple solution. The climate is changing. Everyone agrees on that. The debate is whether or not we humans are having an affect on the climate. There is evidence that shows we are and there is evidence that show we aren't. We likely won't know for sure one way or the other for potentially 100's of years.
The suggested solution to any man made climate change issues is to clean up our environment. Pollute less and reduce the amount of crap we put into the atmosphere.
If it turns out that we do affect the climate then cleaning our environment up will help lessen out impact and reduce the issues caused by climate change. If it turns out that we don't really have any impact on the climate yet we still cleaned ourselves up, then we still win because we have a cleaner, nicer planet to live on.
By cleaning up and reducing the crap we spew out into the world we can't really lose. If we choose to do nothing and we end up being wrong about having an impact on the climate we could lose badly.
