Ah, politics disguised as science.

What's political about that?

Is atmospheric CO2 scientifically classified as a trace gas? Yes or no?

Is it a "major contributor" to "global warming" even using the most dire predictions of the IPCC? At the most, human increases in CO2 are estimated to be responsible for 30% of the projected future increase in global temperatures.

Nothing like the ridiculous argument that our “small sample size” of 100+ years of data just isn’t enough to merit doing anything. Let’s kick that can for forever until we have a million years of data!!

There might be merit to this canard except for the fact there is AMPLE documentation of warming (and even warmer temperatures than current) prior to human inputs of CO2.

Plus, again, you have had almost 30 years of global warming doomsaying and NONE of the predictions have come true.

NONE.

There's plenty of reason to be damned skeptical about this, especially considering the almost non-existent "science" that's being used to underpin the hysteria.
