"Yes, that's your theory"
Thanks, but I must modestly point out that it is Arrhenius' theory, not mine.

"Hey, lookit all that heat in the deep ocean".
So you think oceans are 2 dimensional, and don't transfer heat from molecule to molecule all the way down? An interesting theory, currently in disagreement with 17th, 18th, 19th, 20th, and 21st Century physics. You should write it up and submit it to your garbage can. Then, you can write an identical paper about a 2 dimensional atmosphere.

"The Global Alarmists realized years ago that their theory was bung"

Strange as it seems, your reality of wishful thinking never actually happened on my planet. In fact, Chinese alarmists just announced a cap on carbon emissions, and alarmists right here in the US of A keep going renewable, albeit slowly....

Last week, Governor Mark Dayton signed an economic development bill that contained several powerful incentives for solar development. This confirms what many have been saying for quite some time – that solar is careening toward widespread adoption and will create jobs while reducing emissions along the way.

Strangest of all, the New Zealand of my planet never got the message, either.

The New Zealand Emissions Trading Scheme (NZ ETS) is a partial-coverage all-free allocation uncapped highly internationally linked emissions trading scheme. The NZ ETS was first legislated in the Climate Change Response (Emissions Trading) Amendment Act 2008 in September 2008 under the Fifth Labour Government of New Zealand [1] [2] and then amended in November 2009 [3] and in November 2012 [4] by the Fifth National Government of New Zealand.

The NZ ETS covers forestry (a net sink), energy (43.4% of total 2010 emissions), industry (6.7% of total 2010 emissions) and waste (2.8% of total 2010 emissions) but not pastoral agriculture (47% of 2010 total emissions). [5] Participants in the NZ ETS must surrender one emission unit (either an international 'Kyoto' unit or a New Zealand-issued unit) for every two tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions reported or they may choose to buy NZ units from the government at a fixed price of NZ$25.
