The entire debate has been over hypothesis testing a simple little scientific tool. While of coarse engineering has that tool, its not the only one that was used to build the machines capable of sending stuff to other planets and smashing atoms together.
Yet you guys wanna use one simple little tool to present biased data as fact and then compare it to building modern marvels. How do you think those modern marvels were built? Aliens.

There was a large amount of testing (hypothesis testing) done before anyone built a physical object. Hell there is testing after an object is built.
There is a documentary of how the LHC was built, pretty interesting. A lot planning and testing went on before anything was built.
lol thanks for helping me make my point. They wanna claim global warming to be built and that all the kinks have been worked out. Which they themselves say is not the case in the hypothesis testing that they use.

Except the one thing I've really not seen him doing is addressing the question I always ask: can humans fix this? Debating whether current trends are anthropogenic or not has some merit (best to know where the disease comes from in order to treat it, after all), but if we're ultimately impotent to meaningfully alter it, then debating about it is just another puff of methane wafting into the upper atmosphere. I was actually hoping against all hope that the conversation would steer that way (I tried to provide the nudge within my OP, but perhaps it wasn't forceful enough). However, I'm not nearly that naive to presume that the conversation wouldn't inevitably go the predictable route. (I also didn't expect an all-out derp assault on the basic tenets of the scientific method, but I've learned to never set my expectations too low as it ruins the surprise!)
Sadly, this is the conversation the country is having instead of the one we should be having regarding effective mitigation strategies. It took an enormous change in the fundamental way human society works to create this mess and it will take another such adaptation to make headway into getting out of it BUT we're still arguing about if that jagged bone sticking out of our thigh is really serious or if we should just take a salt tablet and walk it off.

To use an analogy, you are trying to get milk by killing a cow. You might get a litle milk by accident, but you probably wouldn't run your dairy farm that way.
I wouldn't run anything using only one tool, but it seems that this entire debate keep's getting drawn back to ONLY ONE TOOL!
It seems that this analogy isn't sufficient.
You are complaining about someone only using female cows to produce milk at their dairy farm.
I thought about just ignoring this.. but I'm interested to know wtf your talking about. please tell me more.

Temporarily ignoring that you really didn't actually answer my question (nor do I strictly expect you to because we don't have a definitive answer yet), the solace that can be taken is that, although it may have taken us somewhere between 300 and 2,000 years to manufacture the current trend (which isn't necessarily all that unnatural -- humans are far from the only species that has changed the planet's climate), the rate at which our technological development has grown in the past 100 years implies that we may be able to sort out a fix both before it is too late and sooner than later.
I must say that I find it slightly dispiriting to see see people praise the hubris and folly of man in damaging the environment so efficiently while simultaneously holding to the belief that we could never fix it. Every time we figure out a new way to kill someone, for instance, we find a better way to keep another alive, but people seem gloomily determined to focus only on the former. And yet I'm called a pessimist.

Formally or informally, hypothesis testing is the basis for how things are created(particularly at large scales); the costs and consequences are too large to do otherwise. Isn't that a bit of a truism? "I have an idea, therefore it works," is not a statement that likely gets made often, even if the method by which the idea is tested is flawed, fallacious, or downright insane.

There really isn't a question that we can fix it; the question, frankly, is how badly can we *** it up while trying to do so.
There are plans for cloud seeding, solar umbrellas, and pumped underground CO2 storage, just a few of the less far out ideas.
These all take time to properly evaluate and implement. Reducing emissions allows more thought to go intomsolutions, rather than panicked scrambling.

I think someone somewhere told me that they've been using soy milk in China for the past 1,800 years and that before 1949 there were no cows in China. They used various types of animal milk, but the prospect of cow milk wasn't introduced until around the early 1920's to late 1940's, due to problems cultivating and raising dairy cows (or bovines in general), and due to the rampant growth of, and high production rate of soy beans, soy products were a general staple in a lot of foods.

[+]
http://www.nytimes.com/2014/05/07/science/earth/climate-change-report.html?_r=3
A very extensive report, known as the National Climate Assessment, was released earlier this week. Nothing in the report is particularly surprising, but its presentation for the general public, here, is incredibly impressive. (Not all government website releases are a disaster!)
If hardcore technical reports aren't your thing, the highlights portion of the site breaks each section down as plainly as possible, is extensively cited, and makes no secret the level of uncertainty inherent in current findings. The site is really quite fantastic, and I would encourage anyone with genuine interest, skepticism, and/or curiosity in U.S. climate change to fuck around in it for a while. (Of course, if well-substantiated, easily digestible scientific communications aren't your thing, there's always this.)
Perhaps, the most poignant message arising from the report is summarized in this quote from the article:
Quote: The report pointed out that while the country as a whole still had no comprehensive climate legislation, many states and cities had begun to take steps to limit emissions and to adapt to climatic changes that can no longer be avoided. But the report found that these efforts were inadequate. I don't really consider myself a policy person so... what do?
Edit: Also of note is the high diversity of those involved. Largely scientists, of course, but representative of a wide swath of interests, including some oil companies.
