Stop lying. Your "sources" have been anything but independent, objective or reliable. All you've posted is claims from corporate and government-funded quacks.

If you want to dispute these claims try doing so with evidence because nobody cares about your anecdotes.

A claim turns into a fact when it is verified and supported by objective evidence, reliable sources, and can be independently confirmed by others, which goes for every link I've posted.
Facts are objective and verifiable statements about reality.

I've posted plenty if "evidence". You just live in an echo chamber.
You have not posted any evidence disputing any of the claims presented. If I lived i an echo chamber, I wouldn't be here asking you to present evidence to dispute the claims I've posted here.

but you are sure climate change is natural.
The way the climate has been changing the last few decades has been an entirely natural and predictable reaction to the increase in greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere.

What evidence do you have? News articles? If it's in print why believe what you see and experience?
I see you still haven't posted any evidence disputing any of the claims presented. Why would anyone care about what you've "heard and seen" when we have evidence to the contrary?

Barack Obama is 61 years old. Michelle Obama is 59. His children are 24 and 21.
The projections have sea level rise reaching that property in 65-80 years. IPCC projections predict a roughly three-foot increase in ocean levels over the next century. That’s gonna be a huge problem in, say, Miami, where the entire city is within a few feet of sea level, but the Obamas’ home at ten feet above sea level will just be fine long enough for him and his family to enjoy it for the rest of his and Michelle's life, and for his children to inherit it and enjoy it for most or all of their lives.
I haven't seen anyone seriously say that we need to abandon existing coastal property. We just need to be cognizant of sea level rise and take that into account when deciding on the present value of the property. Scaredy Prepper attacks strawmen because he is incapable of attacking the actual claims and predictions made by climate scientists which have become our daily reality:
In today’s climate, extreme heat waves like those the world is currently experiencing are expected once every 15 years for the US and Mexico, once every 10 years in Southern Europe and once every five years for China, the analysis found.
The scientists found that climate change not only drastically increased the likelihood of these heat waves happening, but it is also making them hotter.
“Summers are our busy season, so we anticipate that this sort of thing is going to happen. But this is really unusual — the number of patients that we’re seeing and the severity of injuries — the acuity of injuries is much higher,”
The devastating floods in Nova Scotia have taken out the Canadian National Railway train line that connects the port of Halifax to the rest of the country, disrupting services in the region with no word on when they will resume.
With a summer of extreme weather records dominating the news, meteorologists and scientists say records like these give a glimpse of the big picture: a warming planet caused by climate change. It’s a picture that comes in the vibrant reds and purples representing heat on daily weather maps online, in newspapers and on television.
Arizona's saguaro cacti, a symbol of the U.S. West, are leaning, losing arms and in some cases falling over during the state's record streak of extreme heat, a scientist said on Tuesday.
Summer monsoon rains the cacti rely on have failed to arrive, testing the desert giants' ability to survive in the wild as well as in cities after temperatures above 110 degrees Fahrenheit (43 Celsius) for 25 days in Phoenix, said Tania Hernandez.
Rice production in 2023 is going to be lowest in 20 years, according to analysts. The global shortage for rice for the year 2022-23 is estimated to be 8.7 million tonnes.
“This is a really worrying result,” said Peter Ditlevsen, a climate physicist at the University of Copenhagen and lead author of the new study. “This is really showing we need a hard foot on the brake” of greenhouse gas emissions.
The report predicts that the ability of forests to absorb carbon will start plummeting after 2025 and that forests could emit up to 100 million metric tons of carbon a year as their emissions from decaying trees exceed their carbon absorption. Forests could become a “substantial carbon source” by 2070, the USDA report says.
“Humanity is in the hot seat,” Guterres told a press conference on Thursday. “For vast parts of North America, Asia, Africa and Europe, it is a cruel summer. For the entire planet, it is a disaster. And for scientists, it is unequivocal – humans are to blame.
“All this is entirely consistent with predictions and repeated warnings. The only surprise is the speed of the change. Climate change is here, it is terrifying, and it is just the beginning. The era of global warming has ended; the era of global boiling has arrived.”
Is the Gulf Stream System Slowing? – the Earth101 lecture:
"The consensus statement at the moment would be that this is largely anthropogenic forces that have caused the ocean to warm, for the atmosphere to be highly disturbed and to affect the sea ice,"
Residents of coastal Louisiana are facing growing risks from flooding and extreme weather, with options for home insurance vanishing as insurers leave the state. But the fossil fuel industry operating nearby has no such worries
