His careful work over many decades shows that a globally ­coordinated, moderate and rising carbon tax could reduce temperatures modestly.

I would love to see the mechanism of how making people pay higher taxes affects the climate. I just don't see the connection.

The way I see it, it affects the climate in exactly the same way that throwing virgins into volcanos prevents them from erupting.

As of yet, I know of no scientific experiment that has established that the hypothesized mechanism of carbon dioxide producing heat is a real mechanism. Not only that, but there are plenty of scientific valid, experimentally established, reasons to question the hypothesis.

Why is it that the global warming hysteria mongers always claim that nothing but doom and gloom can result from a warmer earth? Are they not aware of the struggles to survive and the massive species die-offs from the ice ages? Are they not aware that the dinosaurs thrived in a climate that was a few degrees warmer than the current climate?

You mean that doesn't really work?

When I correctly point out that warming is good I get attacked by the libs. That's why they melted down over Trump's where's global warming tweet. They actually believe that their "global warming" makes it colder. A lib explained that it is like a refgrigerator using energy to make cold air. Global warming is the extra energy

I tried explaining that work is needed to run the fridge and heat is not work. That the heat from global warming is 1% of the heat from the sun, makes no difference never mind creates no cold air through a process of conversion of heat into work that they could not explain.

Global warming is undeniably good. Anyone looking at the weather this week with a bit of common sense (like Trump) can figure it out.
