There are many temperature/weather fenomenae that we cannot predict, and don't understand, such as the El Niño and the La Niña. Given the world has proven to us it can just randomly heat or cool whenever it feels like it (whatever causes it is yet unknown), I wouldn't be surprised if the main factor of the heating is something we're disconsidering or unaware of rather than pollution itself.
This is going into a bit off topic, but as a meteorology major, I cannot resist mentioning that we do know more about the ENSO oscillation than you think. El Niño is caused when the normal ocean currents stop dragging cold water up the Peruvian coast. This consequently results in an eastward drift of warm seawater from the Central Pacific to invade the area. The fish all die or swim away, due to the lack of nutrients in the water, and the unusually warm area of the sea results in significant weather pattern changes observed globally. El Niño has been going on ever since South America Split from Africa, and does not account for the significant increase in global mean temperature.
The opposite is La Niña. This phenomenon occurs when the ocean currents are stronger than normal, pushing cold water deep into the Central Pacific. As you can imagine, this also has significant affects on the weather (not opposite to that of La Niña, though, contray to popular belif), which are globally significant. Once again, La Niña, like El Niño, has been going on ever since South America Split from Africa, and does not account for the significant increase in global mean temperate.
I also noticed this statement:
Given we had a colder point when population was booming and industry being born (Little Ice Age), it's pretty hard to predict the weather's patterns, no matter how hard we try.
The climate change debate should not directly involve weather. It should involve climate. Although we are starting to see increased instances where we get unexplained massive storms out of nowhere, or crazy snowstorms or heat waves, etc, the baseline will always remain the same: climate =/= weather. Climate is your average atmospheric phenomena over a long period of times, and weather is the atmospheric phenomena that you observe within a single day. As you may have heard "climate is what you expect, weather is what you get".
