WHY BE SKEPTICAL?
The proponents of AGCC / AGW are con men or useful idiots.
If "the money" really believed that oceans would rise, they'd be selling off oceanfront property or surrounding it with polders, levees and dikes. Mountain retreats would be selling like hotcakes. Governments would be shifting subsidy from the automobile / petroleum / highway hegemony, to electric traction rail - the most efficient form of land transport (90% fuel savings). All housing would be built with superinsulation, thus minimizing the consumption of resources to maintain comfort. And to minimize the cost from natural disasters, construct disaster resistant resilient structures and homes, as a rule, not an exception.
The world had to stop CFC's because ozone depletion was real....
...and continued production was not vital to any nation's economy.

....and China, India, and all the developing countries are increasing their CO2 emissions because global warming is not real
No. China, India and others continue to increase their CO2 emissions because there currently is no other way to continue growing their economies and lifting hundreds of millions of their citizens out of poverty. If those governments took drastic action to cap CO2 the people would revolt and throw them out of power.

What are the governments of the world doing and are going to do with all the revenue the receive on Carbon Taxes and other taxes used as penalties for anything that touches Fossil Fuels? How will it combat climate change? Nobody seems to want to answer that question.
Developing nations want to advance, grow, create employment and a better standard of living. That takes electricity, and transportation. That means fossil fuel generation and gasoline, and diesel vehicles. A Tesla is not going to work in Africa, South America, and many part of Asia, and other parts of the world. So where will the money go? To make dictators and warlords RICHER?

Some say that CFCs were banned because their patents were running out. And now that we're hog tied to their replacements, the chemical companies are happy.
That's quite a story but not very factual. They switched to HFC's and found they were also problematic, they also found that air conditioner coolant was a large contributor. Point is the world changed based on the science,
