TIA - Neither do I deny that there is some level of human influence on climate change. I simply think that the role of atmospheric CO2 in contributing to global warming has been grossly exaggerated in recent years. I do think it is a factor (although it might be more an aftereffect OF significant levels of global warming than a direct cause of them). I also do think that humanity is to some extent contributing to global warming and climate change of different kinds in different areas...that is clearly so...but I think that the CO2 factor and the human factor are relatively minor ones and that the major ones are the natural cycles of the Sun and the Earth's ecosphere.

And, I say again: I AM in favour of reducing our level of carbon emissions.

It is an all-embracing recent popular orthodoxy I'm challenging here because I think it's become unrealistic...but I am NOT saying that we should not be reducing our carbon emissions.
