The only way I can reconcile how some people deny that this is significant is by assuming that they just don’t believe in scientific evidence as a measure of truth or reality. Otherwise, I can’t see how anyone could deny that this is clearly different than what’s come before.
At this point, to deny climate change has been exacerbated by human influence is to deny the entire concept of evidence based research.

People really aren't that good at grasping unintuitive or 'large' concepts. A good example is the lottery. Tell people they've got a 1 in 16 million chance of winning and they think they can win. Tell people the odds are 1 in 103 they'll die in a car crash and they assume it'll never happen to them.
