Odds are they would come to the consensus that CO2 would not be a significant tool.

Or at all useful based on ice core data. Ice core data shows C02 rise follows temperature rise, not the other way around.....

Am I the only one who struggles with a theory that includes effects that precede the cause? How is it that the warmth comes first and the CO2 that causes the warmth follows it?

It would seem much more reasonable to conclude that the rise in CO2 is an effect, like the carbonation leaving your diet Pepsi as it reaches room temperature. But that would leave you to search for a reasonable explanation for the global temperature rise, something like the variations in the amount of solar energy being emitted.

But then no one could blame mankind, and that is unacceptable.
