Actually, during the hothouse eras of prehistory, CO2 levels were often lower than they were during the pre-industrial era, so this news which is made to sound like it demonstrates global warming, actually does the opposite.

Good point - it is quite possible that there is NO correlation between CO2 levels and atmospheric temperatures!
AGW researcher loads gun, lifts foot high into the atmosphere and fires - OUCH!

I thought it was soundly demonstrated in the record that CO
2 is a
trailing indicator. The charts show it starts going up about 800 -1000 years after the temps start on their rise. So CO
2 couldn't be the cause of the temperature rise. You can't cause something by coming along 800 years after it happens.
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong here.

Is there any evidence?

The all important question that rises above and before ALL other questions is the one of evidence.
Is there any evidence that carbon dioxide causes major warming?
