There are far more variables to weather and climate than just CO2. There’s just no way it can all be attributed to one factor.
CO2 is only the third strongest greenhouse gas to begin with.
There’s no way the ocean’s circulation is going to stop.
Even if all that cold water got dammed up at the poles, doesn’t necessarily mean that it would cool the continents south of it. The Hadley cells don’t permit much interchange of atmosphere between the polar regions and the temperate regions so you’re not going to have much cooling through the atmosphere. And if the oceans circulation stops, unlikely as it seems, then there’s no cold water being drawn out to cool the continents.
The alleged drop in temperatures of the poles is not going to cool the whole planet. All it would do is increase the temperature gradient some between the equator and the poles.
Global warming is not going to cause global cooling. SOME parts, might temporarily get colder than others but that happens now anyway and that’s called weather.
"Climate science maverick James Lovelock believes catastrophe is inevitable, carbon offsetting is a joke and ethical living a scam. So what would he do? "
It certainly isn't! Rememeber, I was responding to your comment on "Increasing concentrations of atmospheric CO2 cause warming." Which they do. But that is only one factor in climate.
CO2 is only the third strongest greenhouse gas to begin with.
That fact doesn't change the truth of the statement that increasing atmospheric CO2 concentrations cause warming.
Theres no way the oceans circulation is going to stop.
It doesn't. The Younger Dryas mechanism is that deepwater formation in the North Atlantic is stopped. Ocean circulation goes into a different "mode" until deepwater formation resumes. For the Younger Dryas, it took about 1000 years.
The alleged drop in temperatures of the poles is not going to cool the whole planet. All it would do is increase the temperature gradient some between the equator and the poles.
Good point. The YD was most pronounced in the Northern Hemisphere, specifically North America and Europe. While there are YD signals elsewhere, it apparently didn't have a major global influence. Antarctic ice cores don't show nearly the big temperature drop that the Greenland cores show.

Climate is average weather. Regional climate is more variable than global climate, obviously.
