There's natural variability in climate, but it's never changed so rapidly and dramatically. We know it's due to humans because when we only look at the natural forcing and ignore human influence, we can't reproduce the observed changes. It's real and it's us.

Toxicologist here for any fluoride concerns! The amount of fluoride added to water to prevent tooth decay is so minuscule that—no matter your age, size, or health status—you would die from water poisoning long before you could ever even start getting toxicity from fluoride. Fluoridated water is safe
