"and even if global warming was not mainly caused by human activity, that doesn't mean we shouldn't do everything possible to slow its rate."
Maybe your right, but getting there as a society is a long way off. With ozone layer issues, the fear of excessive sun rays, cancer,etc. was a good motivator for the average joe. Global warming however does not pose much of a danger as a whole to the human race, so therefore, you dont gain such a motivational response.
