First it was THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT in which the sun rays changed their wavelength when it pass ed through the atmosphere. With a different wavelength the heat could not escape at night. The blame was on POLLUTION!
Then in the 1970s it was THE COMING ICE AGE caused by a loss of sunlight coming in due to POLLUTION!
In the 1990s it was GLOBAL WARMING caused by CO2 POLLUTION
Both Obama and Biden have beach houses that sit 3 feet above sea level at high tide. If they are not worried, why should we be worried.

Changing the weather intentionally or otherwise weather modification..(Earth cooling vs Greenhouse effect)
“Do you suppose we can learn enough, soon enough, to pull off a balancing act with the CO2 blanket saving us from another ice age?”
We’re already in a ice age or glaciation period, its called the Quaternary. The Quaternary is defined as a period of cyclic continental glaiciations. What you have enjoyd for say the last 10,000-20,000 years or so is a warming lull. Civilization happened Yay !! Someeday (maybe soon !) the lull will end and the ice sheets will advance again. It’s just a matter of when. Humans didn’t cause it. Humans can’t stop it. It is coming !
Excellent fuzzylogic. Your logic is not at all “fuzzy”.
So, what caused the globe to experience climate changes before this stability set in? How unstable was the climate before that stability set in? Were there wild fluctuations in that unstable period before stability was realized? How does the current instability compare to the previous period of instability?
This idea has been repeatedly shown to be untrue. The sun’s radiation does indeed fluctuate, with sunspots varying in their levels of activity. But these changes in the sun’s radiation can’t account for the increase in temperatures we’ve seen over the past decades. The notion is impossible to defend scientifically.
If the sun plays no part in warming, then what caused warming or cooling for the previous unstable climate to realize the 10,000 year stable climate period, and what allowed the stable period climate to remain stable?

Until a scientific discovery is made, the consensus is it doesn’t exist.
