"the problem you have is that you believe CO2 is a pollutant.."

Nope. I believe CO2 and CH4 are molecules which trap heat, preventing the radiation of XS heat to deep space , thereby increasing the temperature of the planet, potentially to levels incompatible with human society.

You can see why I came to that conclusion by reading this paper....

a PDF of Tyndall’s paperOn the Absorption and Radiation of Heat by Gases and Vapours, and on the Physical Connexion of Radiation, Absorption, and Conduction—which Tyndall had presented as the Bakerian Lecture back in February 1861.
