Name me one that was made extinct by man-made CO2.

The science (IPCC) PROJECTS the following:

"Anthropogenic warming could lead to some impacts that are abrupt or irreversible, depending upon the rate and magnitude of the climate change."
"There is medium confidence that approximately 20-30% of species assessed so far are likely to be at increased risk of extinction if increases in global average warming exceed 1.5-2.5 °C (relative to 1980-1999). As global average temperature increase exceeds about 3.5 °C, model projections suggest significant extinctions (40-70% of species assessed) around the globe."

AGW impacts are coming in the FUTURE. It's irresponsible, if not criminal, to ignore AGW and hope for the best. Right now the majority of species in the world are in DECLINE, thanks to various reasons including habitat destruction (e.g. deforestation), poaching, overfishing, pollution and AGW. You guys are in favor of shutting down the EPA, yet you show false concern over raptors running into a few windmills (because they cut into the hydrocarbon market). That's disgusting.
