May I ask exactly who those politicians were when global
warming reversed itself 120k, 140k, 340k, and 440k years
ago?


C'mon Cecil, you know the advocates of GW deny it is a natural phenomena.

I don't know of a one who believes that.

The earth has been warming and cooling for a very long time. Pretty
much fact also. Some who believe that the earth was created in 4004
b.c.e might contest that.

The question of whether the so-called greenhouse gases have an effect
on the retention of heat in the atmosphere is just about as plain a fact
as there is. There are laboratory experiments, and comparisons with
other planets in our solar system.

Without "greenhouse gases" we simply wouldn't exist.

But the question is whether the amounts that we have introduced into
the atmosphere will have any effect.Here is a link that lists known
greenhouse gases:

Okay. Does our increase of 87 ppm from 1750 c.e. or the 1045 ppb
increase in methane during the same time period have any effect? Or do
human based sources have no effect, only natural sources

Interestingly, if as Cecil alleges, when we hit ~280 ppmv, we trigger an
ice age. Well, we passed that level some time ago. in 1998 we were at
365 ppmv.

Just wait until the next ice age, even a minor ice age, then they, the
GW advocates, will be demanding more CO2 in the atmosphere. :-)

Considering that another ice age will mean the loss of a good part of
humanity, that idea might have some merit.
