I would say, though, that there is definitely a certain kind of person who quickly embraces this sort of information, and clutches it to their breast in a paroxysm of enthusiasm. Given the amount of time this has been coming, and the nearly-impossible solution, having ten or twenty years of thoughtful discussion might be more useful than the superficial solutions, public hand-wringing, and breathless media stories. If I hear one more story saying, "This storm, another sign of global warming" I might get so upset I forget to recycle my Rice-A-Roni container.
So while I agree there is more to anthropogenic climate change than just an "I hate technology" "greenie" reaction, there also isn't much question that this phenomenon does exist.
By the way, "anthropomorphic" means "ascribing human form or attributes to a being or thing not human" while "anthropogenic" means "caused by humans."
