That's odd since the evidence we have so far points to humanity adapting our environment and improving our living conditions with breathtaking success.

Well yes and no - great short term success (of the order of decades or centuries), but we still don't know what the longer term impact of our activities will be; that's one of the big questions of climate science.

Um, we wouldn't be discussing climate change if that were the case.
