Right, which means there is no evidence that the less than 2 degree rise in temperature over the last 100 years isn't just a natural fluctuation of the earth totally unrelatedly to human activities.

But nevertheless the more devastating is the 2nd point, even if men made gases did contribute to a slight rise in temperature, so what? The global warming people kept trying to scare people by telling us that there will be all these unforseen ecological disasters that will result from small rises in temperature. That we seemed to made it out of the even higher temperatures in middle ages without much problem pretty much ends the debate over how concerned we need to be over this nonissue.

And most of that 2 degree rise is prior to 1940. In fact by the mid 70's the climate was cooling so fast that the conventional wisdom was that an ice age was possible.

Now the idea that man made CO2 is solely responsible for worldwide temperature fluctuations has become a religion of the Luddite Anti-American Left.
