Connection between Co2 and climate change?

The connection is CO2 rises AFTER the temperature rises.

When have you ever seen two data plots that were "supposed" to show cause and effect shown on separate graphs?

Oh yes it would be "An Inconvenient Truth" and the reason why it was presented that way is because even simple people would have seen the inconvenient truth.
 
CO2 is released from the P/T layer of the deep ocean at 4500 meters called the Calcite or Carbonate Compensation Depth. Below this depth carbonates (i.e. CaCO3) of all sorts are 100% soluble and CO2 is sent into solution. Carbonate cannot persist below this depth.
When ocean temperatures rise, then the CO2 concentration then exceeds the saturation P & T and must be released.
This phenomenon has been known for 150 years or more. Historical CO2 TRAILS temperature! No need for any other debate on "historical" CO2. Having said that, I am in NO way implying that present CO2 levels are a result of this mechanism. I am just trying to point out the irrelevance of the relationship as somehow having "been seen before" as associated with warming trends.
The role of CO2 as a greenhouse gas (which it is) and the degree of warming (that it does cause) are much more complicated than NAS, NASA, IPCC and others would like you to believe. I have linked a person's calculations on the thermodynamics of CO2 just to illustrate the complexity. I do not know if the guy is right or wrong or is a hack or a genius. He does however attempt to address some of the very major problems that Greenhouse theory must address!
