Atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration is not the cause of warming.
Similarly, it's not the sleeping bag that is the cause of you being warm on a freezing night.
And even if someone is stupid enough to not believe that, human generation of carbon emissions is dwarfed by what plants put into the atmosphere during the decomposition process.
It's true. The problem with that argument is that plants are releasing carbon they got from the atmosphere. Take in a ton over 100 years, release a ton. Net zero. Burning hydrocarbons is releasing carbon that used to be sequestered underground for millions of years.
increased atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide is an EFFECT of warming, not a cause
That's called a positive feedback loop. The only way to deny carbon's role in the conservation of heat energy is to deny that it has any absorption in the infrared. Are you claiming that carbon dioxode does not absorb infrared radiation?
Which plants then consume and use to flourish.
If it's so good, let's put you in a room with just 20% CO2. That ought to really boost your health.
You argue like a dipshit. Only a dipshit would consider a FRACTIONAL GAS a significant driver of ocean temperature rises. And plants BIND carbon for the most part, they are net consumers of carbon. And burning that carbon releases CO2, which is a damn sight better than letting it decompose, which produces methane.
A fractional gas comprises less than one percent of the Earth's atmosphere. You imagine us smothering under a blanket of flat-spun gossamer?
Oh, and hey stupid, humans are animals, not plants, except you, who apparently are at least half vegetable.

I didn't argue that anything was a significant driver of anything. You assumed my position simply because I pointed out OP was wrong on a number of points. That's what makes you the dipshit in the situation. Get your facts straight and then come back and see if you can have an intelligent conversation (although I suspect the way you react emotionally to encountering a counter argument means you're incapable of intelligent conversation). What the fuck is it with millenials and their freaking out when they encounter something they don't like?
OMFG, even your defensive retorts are those of a dipshit. You sound like a fucking child. If you're going to parrot IPCC talking points then you ought to be prepared to defend the IPCC's position, you whiny faggot.
