Plus I was in the government schools in the 60's and early 70's when they were, by and large, still quite good at educating youngsters.
In fact, we're doing a better job now than in the 70s, although the early to mid 60s were as good or better than now, on the whole. But we've got to go beyond that to the point were people can actually evaluate such claims at least to know the general evidence.
You and I are simply going to have to agree to disagree about whether or not humans are causing global warming
In fact, the data are not yet conclusive on that. The evidence certainly points that way, but we need to do more work before it can be considered absolutely settled.
Not long ago, BTW, the Cato institute had people claiming that Global Warming didn't exist. Now, the same people have backed off, admitting that it's a fact, but are blaming it on volcanoes (try to find some data which support that!).
or whether this is a natural climate cycle that we will just have to weather.
Climate/weather cycles have a fractal structure, that looks the same at any scale. But the data so far show that human activity strongly correlates with the warming. And that's very strong evidence.
