What % of scientists dispute the fact (!) that CO2 is the primary cause of climate change.......

Sometimes a house gets warmer even when the central heating is turned off. Does this prove that its central heating does not work? Of course not. Perhaps it’s a hot day outside, or the oven’s been left on for hours.


Does a house get warmer if you add more insulation in the attic? No doubt about it..... Now if the earth's atmosphere becomes more insulating wouldn't you expect the atmosphere to get warmer? CO2 does that because it is more insulating that air....it is more insulating because CO2 is a poorer thermal conductor than air, ie more insulating and normal radiation is not as effective (cooling) as air with less CO2 in it. It's a simple experiment a high school kid could do....

Now my key question to you.....do you doubt climate change because of your politics? Honest answer please...
