Every elite government physicist in the world knows that the impact of CO2 on temperature is almost 100% saturated and adding more CO2 won’t have any significant impact on global temperature. That’s why nobody’s doing anything much to cut emissions of CO2, other than raising fuel efficiency standards. India and China are actually building a lot of new coal-fired power plants.
The Paris Climate Agreement is just a political show. If there was really a climate crisis we would have seen a big transition into nuclear power and solar power starting about 30 years ago. If you want to know what politicians really believe, watch what they do and not what they say.

Want to freak them out? Tell them we just have to plant more trees to absorb the carbon. It’s cheaper and will take less time.
There is virtually no CO2 in the atmosphere.
4/100ths of a percent is awfully close to zero. That tiny fraction of this benign natural gas is not likely to have an "impact" on anything.
By contrast, Nitrogen is 78%, and Oxygen is 21% (that's 99%)
