Is anthropogenic climate change occurring? (Bogan v Happy_Killbot)

Debate Information

Position: For
@Bogan ;

The topic of this debate is as specified in the title, and should be limited to substantiate evidence and analysis of anthropogenic climate change and its effects on the planet. The debate should approach and attempt to answer the question: "Is anthropogenic climate change occurring?".

I will be arguing in the affirmative (for), Bogan will be arguing in the negative (against).

The first round should be used to post an initial argument for the position which one is holding. Subsequent rounds can be used to cross-examine your interlocutor's position and post a rebuttal or clarifying remarks. The final round should be used to present a closing statement and tie up any lose ends in one's position.

The Rules are as follows:

The debate will consist of 3 rounds with 24 hours per round.

As per Debate Island's Code of conduct:

1. Be respectful of your fellow DebateIslanders
No need to flame any debaters regardless of your side. Don't make vulgar, offensive, illegal, or profane comments/debates. Don't use foul or inappropriate language. No ad hominem - attacking your opponent's character or personal traits.

2. Your posts should be appropriate content
NSFW, hate topics, spam is strictly not allowed. Spam includes off topic/hijacking posts, bot spamming, etc . If you post links or images make sure they are safe and not copyright. If you see a post that violates these standards, please use our Flag feature for moderator to review.

3. Make your argument count
Your posts can be as short or long as you prefer. You may vote, provide a quick reaction (Agree, Disagree, Informative, etc), or a short comment. The choice is truly yours based on how you feel. That said, a quality argument will typically have the following: no major spelling/grammar errors, explanation of your position, rebuttal of your opponent points, and reference to quality sources.

4. Keep your arguments on topic
Staying on topic in your arguments is helpful. Fill free to create another debate instead of drifting too much from the original topic. When you feel there is no more to say, not saying anything, a quick reaction (Agree, Disagree, Informative, Funny, etc) or thanking your opponent is a good choice.

Happy debating!
At some point in the distant past, the universe went through a phase of cosmic inflation,
Stars formed, planets coalesced, and on at least one of them life took root.
Through a long process of evolution this life 
developed into the human race.
Humans conquered fire, built complex societies and advanced technology .

All of that so we can argue about nothing.
