The scientists who study these do know much more then we all do, and science is the best understanding we have of reality.

Anthropogenic climate change is reality.
I only refuse to accept science that is not done properly, such as using proxies instead of direct measurements because the proxies show what is wanted.
Two examples off the top of my head
1. As stated several times recently sun spots vs. direct TSI measurements
2. Using the high altitude wind speeds measured from radiosondes run through their computer simulation instead of the direct measurements from the sensor package. These measurements are then used to calibrate the readings from satellites.

I have a basic understanding of gravity, and I can calculate the force between two objects based off of their masses.

I understand how the climate works better than the vast majority.

I have a basic understanding of how DNA works, Yes.

Anthropogenic climate change is reality. Yes that is true, but it is being grossly exaggerated.

Since you understand climate science so well maybe you can show some of the equations involved. Start with the black body emission energy output for temperature. Hint I have even explained it on this very thread at least once.
