I find the Mauno Loa graph most interesting. Carbon dioxide goes from 320 to about 400 parts per million. Please note the "parts per million" units. That means we've experienced a shift from 0.032% to 0.040% in our atmospheric composition. That amounts to a 0.008 change. Can a chemical composition shift that small actually induce the postulated effects? I think not. I'm going with the solar activity theory.

As to shutting down carbon dioxide emissions.... Those of us in the wealthy industrial world really carry little weight when it comes to advising developing nations on their energy policies. Shifts to gas/oil still generate tons of carbon dioxide. With our fear of nuclear power and the inefficiencies and low dependability of wind and solar, the US should get off of its high horse.

If being stupid allows me to believe in Him, I'd wish to be a retard. Eisenhower and G Washington should be good company.

Yep. The environmentalists have taken over the brains of libs and the only thing that will satisfy them is the starvation and death of all men. Liberalism is a mental disorder.

Right. The "green movement" has hidden their real agenda pretty well although now they have oversold it and cried wolf too often.

Look, back in the 1970, I was a young forestry student who thought the ecology movement made sense. Nixon's EPA and the need to clean up our industries was a necessity and many common sense regulations were passed. New innovations resulted which was a benefit.

Fast forward 44 years and the same movement has morphed into socialist engineering while hiding behind their white lab coats. Real scientific methodology has been transformed into clever computer models driven to change the opinions of government, industry and the public.

If you read last months UN IPCC report, they are stating that the free market economies must be de-constructed in order to lower the living standards and thus the demands for a modern society.

The very bottom line is that these are true socialists at work and they mean to take away your freedom to do and prosper as you choose.

More and more recent analysis is pointing to the solar cycles. Read about the Maunder Minimums and your eyes will be opened.

40-50 years of data is statistically insignificant with regard to climate change. All this captures is a tiny slice of time within an interglacial period. There is absolutely no way to show that an uptick in average annual temps on the order of five centuries is anything other than natural variation within the cycle. Continental glaciers have advanced and receded several times over the last 400,000 years with absolutely no human influence. The relatively brief interglacial periods have been subject to a great deal of temperature variation as well.

Climate change is triggered by a combination of solar activity, the wobble of the earth's rotation, volcanic activity, ocean currents, landmass movement, and likely many mechanisms we have not even thought of. To think that we can arrest the constant state of climate change by altering a small percentage of one greenhouse gas is the height of hubris.
