I answered a question explaining how/why anthropogenic (man made) global warming is currently affecting the climate. Another member took issue with my set of points, and wrote out his own. What do you think of the following set of facts?

Global warming and cooling occur naturally and is caused by many factors, as you explain, [but] C02 is not one of [the factors]. The fact is that C02 follows global warming, which is logical in the scientific scheme of things. The major greenhouse gases of water vapor do change the temperatures locally, but do not have a global impact and C02 being a minor greenhouse gas has negligible effects on temperature. Since C02 is a trace element in the atmosphere and not found much above 10,000 feet as its molecular weight is heavier than air. Mother nature intended this as C02 falls out of the atmosphere by gravity to where the plants use it for their respiration.

We are currently reversing the warming trend and gradually over the next 2 decades, the earth will cool down again as this cycle has been repeated over the eons.

I do appreciate at least a good effort on describing your position, something one does not see coming from your camp very often. This hysteria will in time run it course than one will no longer hear about it as the science finally catches up to the emotional hysteria of this issue.

The sun is the most prevalent theory on warming of the earth and if you think in logical terms, the most prevalent argument. Otherwise cold clear nights up north in the snow country would be warmer than they are, which they are not, which concludes C02 in the atmosphere does not warm the earth.

4 gigitons of C02 are released annually by Man's activities. The earth's biosphere releases 40,000 gigitons annually. Do the math and consider physics and statistics in your analysis.
 
Not an answer to your question, but another fact to throw in. Samples taken by drilling in to the oldest pack ice revealed higher carbon deposits from eons ago then are in existence today, suggesting a cyclic pattern.
