Theres also the cycles of "albedo" or the reflectiveness of our planet. It gets hotter, has less ice, reflects less, gets hotter, etc and the inverse. Until natural forces send it the other way. Super normal.
Even if humans could have a significant impact, the US is only 1/6th of emissions, and also its not like we could just rape our economy to fix it. I sincerely believe that nuclear power is the solution to all the environmental alarmism bullshit. Theres even research into some types that can reuse old nuclear waste like thorium. Personally im more concerned with the trillions of microplastics we are releasing into the planet
Climate Change via CO2 is a myth.
The only Climate Change that happens ebbs and flows on the frequency and severity of global volcanic eruptions.
More volcanic eruptions = more particulate in atmosphere = global cooling
Less volcanic eruptions = less particulate in atmosphere = global warming
It's very cyclical and goes up and down every few hundred years.
Solar output is an obvious factor that is often overlooked
There are a ton of factors involved none of which are manmade CO2.
Solar output is a big one but so is the earths orbit. The earth oscillates between a nearly circular orbit to an elliptical orbit.
It also wobbles on it axis. Think a spinning top slowing down.
Then you can look at how our solar system moves up and down through the galactic plane on its path around the galaxy.
There are many cycles like these that effect climate.
Check out the deplorable climate blog. Guy has a lot of good shit there. Honest scientific inquiry.

Cool to know!
Obviously its more complex than only volcanic activity cycles, but I think we're on the same wavelength.
Man-made climate change is drastically overstated and should not be a political issue at all.
Can we have effects on the environment & climate? absolutely. Can we raise the temperature of the planet significantly? Extraordinarily unlikely.

microplastics are concerning.
Actual chemical & chemical pollution is a very real and dangerous issue. CO2 is a larp though.
LFTRs are legit
I think if that happens we have greater things to worry about.
Good point. Dutchsinse over on his channel has put a lot of details together and makes that compelling case.
