Re: My point is that when very specific questions are asked of the global warming proponents the answer is always the same. "There is a consensus, blah, blah, blah." So what.

CO2 traps heat. It's simple physics, like the earth being round rather than flat. You can check this out with a glass bottle, a thermometer, and your breath.

There's no need for a consensus.

What can be argued is whether a warmer Earth with an atmosphere containing more CO2, etc. is better or worse.

But greenhouse gases cause the Earth to warm, just as sulfur in the upper atmosphere (whether from volcanos or burning coal) causes it to cool.
