You almost have it right.

Climate change is one thing...it's a fact, the climate is and has always been in a state of change.

The AGW religion suggests humans do or can control that change.

One is true and based in science, the other is a religion based in ideology.

They really don't understand the science, and are ignorant of the fact that climate change and global warming are two different things...The warming causes the climate to change

Do you have any evidence that "Greenland was actually green"? Ever?

Yes it was, but the warmth was short lived. https://www.scientificamerican.com/a...-earth-warmer/

During this period of time, the whole world was warmer, including Scandinavia and the arctic regions. This resulted in a more favorable climate for fawna and agriculture.

Obviously, there were no pictures, but this was a time when Greenland was first colonized in earnest by Norse settlers. While the whole Island certainly was not green, there was agriculture and ranching there during this period. So it was at least somewhat green.

450,000 years ago. Probably not in the time frame that it was named.

You cannot make this stuff up. Clearly, they have harassed, threatened, terrorized and monetarily extorted any career scientists who might be tempted to depart from the "Politically correct" point of view on this topic. Of course any scientist who dares to do that will be 'cancelled,' their career ended, and if they are anyone of note in the public arena, a campaign to discredit, to humiliate, and to financially ruin them will quickly ensue.

LOL. Is anyone surprised, given the cultural atmosphere of ideological intolerance and terror that the globalist left has worked so hard to impose?

This is not science. This is the effect of domineering and bullying politics.
“Politically Correct”?

What are you talking about?

Brain cells dying...
