Then why do you seem confused that we can approximate things that no one was around to write down?

That is of course a logical fallacy. Correlation /= Causation. It has not been scientifically proven that mankind is responsible for climate change and it's not been proven that mankind can even do anything about it.

I pay as little taxes as possible.

And I couldn't care less about the costs. Not my problem.

Climate scientists, you know the ones that actually study this stuff, do not agree with you. As with the other deniers you provide no proof to back up your claims. All you're doing is stating an opinion. It's almost as if you just pull it out of your a**. Look, it's ok that you don't understand the science. Not a lot of people do. It's nothing to be ashamed of.

Just because you don't agree with it doesn't make it opinion or non-factual. It's ok that you don't actually understand the real science, most people don't, it's nothing to be ashamed of.

Oh bull crap...There is tons of evidence...It has been known since the 19th century that CO2 is a greenhouse gas that warms the planet....Without it earth would be a snowball.

Really? That's all you can come up with? Just re-hashing my post? You deniers are so good at making stuff up it just surprises me that you can't come up with anything original.

Based on the margin of error disclosed in the "approximation" methodology CO2 levels might be the same. You guys are arguing over 100th of degrees Celcius using data that is a guess at best.
