I understand your goal is to sow dought on the basic premise that humans are causing warming.

You have no idea why the planet has seen increased warming over the last 100 years. Your internet masters have not sent you talking points to explain the current warming, so you are helpless. The Sun goes through cycles of increased output, which increase warming on Earth. We are currently in a period of decreased solar output. So, what other natural forces do you believe are causing increased warming? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have said I believe the warming is caused (mostly) by the same natural causes that have occurred many times in the earths past history before mankind existed. Are mankind's activities increasing the warming maybe, possibly are the proposed countermeasures more detrimental to mankind than the warming maybe, possibly. Does Co2 increase warming yes it seems to was Co2 much higher in the past yes say the "scientist's" was the earth greener supporting a huge explosion of plant and animal species was it warmer yes they say all before humans existed. https://clintel.org/there-is-no-climate-emergency-a-message-to-the-people/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other factors you cite don't cause significant additional warming. What is causing the warming is human produced Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A New 66 Million-Year History of Carbon Dioxide Offers Little Comfort for Today "it indicates that the last time atmospheric carbon dioxide consistently reached today’s human-driven levels was 14 million years ago—much longer ago than some existing assessments indicate. It asserts that long-term climate is highly sensitive to greenhouse gas, with cascading effects that may evolve over many millennia." When your position is that there was more CO2 back in the days of the dinosaurs, you forget that our civilization cannot tolerate such high temperatures. Agriculture would collapse.
