I don't think you are quite getting SR. Steve explains it really weird in my opinion. I came across the idea before I read on this blog so I'm not subject to the same confusion lol.

I explain SR like so: Awareness is a fundamental aspect of reality just like mass, space, time, energy etc. Awareness is a thing in itself, what it is like to see or hear or feel cannot be reduced to a set of simpler parts. Fundamentals like mass, space and the like are necessarily subjective experiences because they can only be known in terms of the senses.

In order for awareness to manifest (physically at least) complex information systems such as the brain are needed, meaning that there are necessary features about the world. Specific constants of nature that have allowed for the formation of planets and life must exist for the world to consistent within these aspects of reality. So, in other words, space, time, energy and consciousness are the same (non-duality or SR)

So, when you say SR may be the cause of global warming you're also saying that energy and matter is causing global warming. Thats just what reality is. The cause of global warming according to some is our own actions. SR is not the cause of global warming.
