You've got the religion big time.

Most of the damage has been done, the Grand Banks off eastern North America were above water 15000 years ago. So was a lot of coastline that is now 200 feet below sea level. It appears we were screwed before we climbed out of the cave.

There is a lot of dispute about CO2 doing anything weatherwise in the atmosphere other than making plants grow faster and bigger. There is no proven causal link that CO2 in the atmosphere will cause any disaster at all. These are computer generated fantasies from a bunch of blood sucking bottom dwelling scum fleecing the public. Global warming has been going on since the last ice age 15000 years ago and there is no definitive evidence that anything humans are doing wouldn't be happening even if humans weren't on the planet except in the dreams of the weak minded.

Simple fact is humans still don't know enough about the energy and mass balances in the oceans, atmosphere and sun to know what is causing what with the weather and global warming.

What is clear is the seasons change yearly and the weather changes daily and it is clear it's because of sun effects and these effects can clearly change temperature and weather patterns far more and far quicker than a small change in CO2 concentration. Even a cloud going overhead can change the temperature faster and by a greater amount than any CO2 has been shown to do.

It's time you fanatics got a grip.

All major surface temperature data sets show the last 11 years as cooling. In that same time period CO2 has increased markedly-
