In fact the parallel between temperature rise and burning of carbonecous compunds is striking, as is the expalantion of how C=2 acts. So yes. Humans burn rders of magnitude more than can be bound, that has to have consequences.

Oh yes and there are some natural effects also acting on climate.
So is the fact that governments treat that unfalsifiable cause, as a cash cow, that they can tax and regulate due to the fear it could be true from car emissions to cow farts.

Fear not for our planet. Mother Nature will see to it that it, the planet, will rebound after man has “disappeared”. 👍
Most of the other life forms will get on much better without us, domestic cows and pigs excepted.

That has no point in the "Science" Forum, put it to "Debates".

You think that it is falsifiable?

In other words if you live long enough to see real effects of climate change like Santa Monica disappearing under a sea of water and that also happening around the world, no matter WHAT happens, humans are WAY to insignificant on the planetary stage to EVER affect our climate.
Can you admit that is your stance?

Just admit it, you are a climate change denier, in as far as it is humans causing it.

I don't deny what I don't think has been proven.

Sure, all you have to do is keep your mind closed, ignore things like a brush fire in Canada consuming an area bigger than my state of Pennsylvania where we had to breathe the smoke for weeks right here in the US.
Yep, just weather.
Alaska ice now melting much faster than ever before, now 50,000 gallons per SECOND. You ever hear THAT happening before?
Oh, I forgot, just weather.

Here you can see a glacier retreat...and no no "proof" that it was caused by hman gloabl warming, but an interesting obe´servation anyway.

A means to tell me the global temperature and track it over time for a substantial period of time.

"substantial" being? You probably don't accept the temperature tracking of the last few tousand years?

No, his response to that will undoubtedly be to just put down the science of how those past temperatures are measured, so he can rationalize it all away.

We have been tracking temperatures for the earth for a few thousand years? We only have recorded human history for how long?
