note how the fake-newsers conflate “contrary to mainstream climate science” into “a statement at odds with mainstream scientific consensus”.

Deliberately insinuating “climate science” = “scientific consensus” (an oxymoron since consensus has nothing to do with science) is like saying that proctology = all medical disciplines. Exagerated and unprovable claim is typical of the global warming scam.

[[Changes in Water Vapor concentration can change the temperature in a matter of minutes.]]

But only locally- there isn’t a constant water vapor cloud enveloping the globe- causing world wide heating- there are huge gaps that allow the heat to blow right past the cloud layers-

Climates change- what we are experiencing is nothing more than natural cyclical warming and cooling trends

There is no primary cause of something that isn’t happening.

How come when glaciers recede their are preserved trees tens of thousands of years old? Doesn’t that imply that it was warmer a long time ago?

WHen you dig into the claims about CO2, you realize the details include a lot of stipulations and qualifiers.

First of all, most every discussion of the ‘primary drivers’ are discussing only drivers where they can claim ‘man-made’. Among things that Humans have an impact on, CO2 has the most impact.

Well, that is if you accept the second premise, which is that if there is a human component to a factor, we can treat the factor as human-made, but in fact CO2 has many sources.
