The assertion that only 119 of the 11000 some papers were relevant is a lie.

If there was a flood of government grant money available for scientists to "prove" that Hell freezes over, one can be assured that there would be plenty of takers. The whole pack of leftist/statist/greenies yowling about "climate catastrophe" cannot come up with any realistic "solution" to their perceived problem, other than increased taxes and regulations that raise energy prices, disproportionately affecting and hurting the poorest among us. Global civilization cannot run on windmills and Teslas. Fossil fuels will continue to be extracted and utilized, now and in the foreseeable future, for the simple fact that they work, efficiently and economically. Take them out of the picture, and modern civilization would cease to exist. The amount of CO2 in Earth's atmosphere consists of a minuscule 0.035% of the total. That level will increase, no matter how much the econut statists howl. It's simple human nature that people will not agree to conveniently die or live in caves in order to achieve some greenie paradise that elitists dream about. Weather is weather and the climate has and always will change. Que sera, sera..
