“So, his first statement is that “adding CO2...would raise temperatures” Since the increase in CO2 is LAGGING temperature rises, it can NOT be cited as a “cause”.”
Oh, I see ......it’s english and science you have trouble understanding..
He said “all other things being equal”. In that case there would be no source of CO2 to come out of solution due to temperature increases.
No, you don’t get that one.
The “all other things being equal” has NO EFFECT on the underlying statement, which asserts that CO2 causes temp increase.
There is NO evidence of any such cause and effect.
