I personally don't understand scientific issues turned political and can find plenty of reasons to distrust the deniers (who often tend to listen far too much to conservative entertainers and/or trust in junk science provided by people with a vested interest in companies that will be hurt by global warming legislation).
It is not hard to see the correlation between our actions and the changes in the environment. Dying trees, rising seas, depleted water supplies WILL cause major issues no matter what the cause. If you think people like to war over oil, imagine what happens if water literally dries up in major population centers.
It is an important issue to address and deal with, not one to bury your head in the sand and say "It's all a myth."
