[[“Climate variability and change is a lot more complex than ‘CO2 as control knob’,” Curry said]]

Hey curry- appreciate you taking a stand, but CO2 is not a ‘control knob’ at all- there isn’t nearly enough of it to be one- the atmosphere has only 0.00136% CO2 in it- that;s it- that small amount aint controlling nuthin!

Also- ice core samples prove that temperatures always rise first- hundreds of years BEFORE CO2 rises- so how in the heck is CO2 a ‘control knob’ again?

It’s amazing they can even measure such a small amount of CO2 ,oh wait so they make it up

Possibly being facetious?

The root cause of every human ill is capitalism and freedom. So according to every leftist on earth.

CO2 is just a by-product of capitalism and freedom.

[Alas Babylon!]

No, she’s not saying she thinks that. She’s chastising those who think co2 is a control knob, not claiming it. Read it again, you’ll see. That’s why it’s in quotes.

The nutballs believe that that is exactly what co2 is. It is a great way to nail the argument with an understandable analogy.

Perhaps you are not familiar with the record and work of Judith Curry. Be assured she does not need your help. She is one of the few true scientists studying climate and she has paid her dues big time.
