I have a friend that claims climate change is not man made. He always talks about volcanos and ice ages. Does anyone know what evidence I can actually hand him to show him man's contribution is the leading cause?

Wow. The 'Current Path' was very optimistic. We are accelerating roughly twice as fast as was predicted here in 2016.

You can start by showing them that every mass extinction event earth has witness was the rapid climate change after massive volcanic eruptions spewed greenhouses gases... (including the dinosaurs, the asteroid was basically kicking them while they were already down)... and we're doing the exact same thing at break neck speeds.
