the ice age ended because there is natural variability in the climate. No one disputes this. If there were no people on the planet the climate would still change. However, this doesn't mean human activity isn't adding to this natural change, the evidence strongly suggests it is. This means any such change could be greater, and much more rapid, than would be occurring naturally.

It is the scientific community who provides the evidence for climate change, not the government. The government aren't saying anything that isn't supported by the IPCC (the coalition of world scientists).
