Even more to the point CO2 is a very weak greenhouse gas. All the models require that CO2 merely act as a trigger to up H20 levels which is what actually causes the real temperature change. You can double atmospheric CO2 and get only a 1 C increase in temperature.

More to the point, any greenhouse effect from CO2 would mainly act to produce milder weather in winter, which seems like a good thing.

Increased water vapor is self-limiting, since more evaporation results in more rain, and more clouds that reflect sunlight back into space.

But of course since the climate models they use don’t actually account for dynamic precipitation/evaporation cycles with cloud cover factored in, they simply miss that sort of thing.

It’s amazing that any scientist can look themselves in the mirror and endorse this charade.
