Are you suggesting the other 97% isn't as "linear" as our 3%?

So... CO², as soon as it's released from Mauna Loa, it get dispersed around the world, instantly?
That's a neat trick. What other gases do you think do this?
THIS is the point, in case you nerds forgot:
The Mauna Loa CO2 monitoring station - an illogically placed station located near a volcano that generates
copious amounts of CO2. CO2 can be better measured elsewhere - far away from CO2-generating volcanoes.
==================================================
Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² Explains EVERYTHING!
Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² makes for shorter winters, except for when it makes for longer winters.
Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² means less snow, except for when Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² means more snow.
And Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² causes droughts in California and floods in Texas and Oklahoma and generally makes wet places
wetter and dry places dryer, except when it makes wet places drier and dry places wetter, except when none of that changes at all,
and then Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² explains that too!
And Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² causes more hurricanes at the same time as it causes less hurricanes.
Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² causes more rain but less water... and less rain but more water?
And Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² causes more water vapour in the atmosphere, at the same time it causes less rain... and less
water vapour in the atmosphere, when it causes MORE rain?
Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² decreases the spread of malaria at the same time as it increases the spread of malaria.
Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² makes San Francisco foggier... Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² makes San Francisco less foggy.
Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² causes duller autumn leaves... Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² causes shinier autumn leaves.
Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² makes for less salty seas... Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² makes for saltier seas.
Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² causes the polar ice caps to melt... Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² also causes the polar ice
caps to freeze.
Climate Change/Global Warming/CO² makes the Earth hotter, unless the Earth isn't getting hotter... in which case, Climate
Change/Global Warming/CO² can explain that too.
What's the problem here? This sounds like the perfect scientific theory. It can explain literally everything including self
contradictory things.
This means it's absolutely perfect, doesn't it?
Well no, not according to Karl Popper and the philosophers of science and within the philosophy of science there's something called
the demarcation problem... how do you differentiate science from pseudo-science?
The left won't LET you, and brands you a denierrrrrrr(whining).
