Also there is solar variation leading to short periods of little ice age during the million year period of ice age and 10,000 year interglacials. Which led to sea level rising 250 metres and falling and rising. The 3 mm per year now is trivial. With air temperature barely up from the little ice age there's no chance of Antarctica melting and Greenland isn't going green though they say there's melting of Greenland. It might be the northern hemisphere soot and dust that's absorbing sunlight on the surface and melting it. Stop putting muck in the air China ... and others.

And earths magnetic field stops incoming stuff which causes some high cloud which reflects sunlight and is cooling. Cosmic rays vary so those clouds do.

The big effect is water as clouds, snow cover and irrigation of deserts. The gulf stream takes megatons of CO2 down to the ocean bottom for 1000 years.

Plants and animals take CO2 from oceans and their debris settles into kilometres of sediment which is eventually subducted and fuels volcanoes and gets turned to oil and gas deposits if it doesn't get up a volcano.

The subduction volcanoes are explosive because of entrained hydrocarbons and water. Hawaii is not because it's upwelling magma with little fuel nowhere near subduction zones.

CO2 at 400 ppm is obviously nice. 280 ppm was too low. I guess 600 ppm would be nicer with plants loving it. They need less water at high CO2 so that's another benefit.

I used to sell fuel oil so glasshouse farmers could warm and enrich the CO2 for crops. They can save money now.

The simplistic climate models that ignore clouds, gamma rays, greening of deserts, dew point variations that change cloud latitude and coverage, etc are useless.

If everything was equal, then increasing CO2 a lot would do a little warming. But reality iver 130 years shows negligible effect in temperature but lits on plant growth.

Things like that.
