In Chicago, we used to have our weather monitoring station near Lake Michigan with the moderating effects of the lake. Now they are at an Airport on the far northwest edge of Chicago with the moderating effects of the airport and thousands of jet engines and pollution from them. And yet, we continue to see temperature record comparisons for certain dates or months, etc, that show heat records as far back as the 1930's dust bowl era and even the 1880s. It is called weather. It is not climate change.
I have flown across the Pacific Ocean many times and to see nothing but blue water for 12 to 15 hour and think that man is changing that climate, baffles me.
But lets suppose for the moment that man is creating climate change. Most climate change fanatics say it started with the Industrial Revolution. Have you ever speculated on any other data and rising issues from the start of the Industrial Revolution. Try population growth.

https://ourworldindata.org/world-population-growth//wiki/World_population I have never yet heard a single politician or Global warming nut case or Climate Change fanatic ever even attempt to address the only real and possible cause. And that is the idiot Democrats and other leftists the world over looking for another tool to control mankind.
The world's population is rising at alarming rates. Skyrocketing. And each and every person exhales about the same amount of CO2 every day. So, on that point alone, we are creating about 7 times as much pollution as we did in 1810. We have many more personal devices from cars to electric tooth brushes, all consuming energy. But they are all getting more efficient due to the advances of technology. We have to heat and cool our homes and we are getting more efficient at that. But there are 7 times as many people doing it as in 1880.
Remember when New York was the most populous city in the world with 5 or 8 million. We now have about 20 cities near or over 20 million. All exhaling CO2.
The bad news is the world population is still increasing at alarming rates. The good news is that the overall increase while still going up, is going up at a continuously lowering rate. The U. S. rate is getting closer to flat lining. And immigration is causing a lot of the increase. It is the rest of the world, not America that is causing the rise in population. But our past POTUS would have America make most of the sacrifices to stop this so called Climate Change. Stupid.
To add to the problem, people all over the world are living longer. Sometimes much longer.
If man is responsible for Global warming, quit reproducing. It is the one real and simple solution. China and India are growing at alarming rates. China tried to stop this process by limiting women to one child. Crude in concept and execution, but at the core of what is needed to slow population growth. One solution would be to give every family a TV and free access to birth control. They'll fall asleep in front of the TV and if they don't, there is the back up birth control.
Poorer countries (they have nothing else to do at night) and deeply religious people (they push reproduction to increase growth of their religion) are all at the worst of this increase.
Back in the 60s and 70s I was of the idea that the creation of the pill was God's way of saying that we have taken over our fair share of the world and it was the time to stop growing. It has only gotten worse. I look at the Octomon and want to puke. The Duggers are even worse. I recently heard a comment from somewhere were some individual was condemned for suggesting a carbon tax on people. Now that makes sense. You breed 'em you feed 'em and you pay for their individual CO2 production until they are 21. Screw you for selfishly, recklessly, over screwing.
I'm sick of women saying they have the right to control their own bodies and then don't control their own bodies in a responsible manner. No woman should willingly have more then two kids in their lifetime. In an over populated world we have women being artificially inseminated for selfish reason. Adopt. I would never suggest abortion. To me, that is murder. But I am all in on birth control. Control yourselves. But don't ask or expect me to pay carbon taxes for you or anyone in the world who over reproduces. Go to hell.
But in reality, Climate Change is a natural thing and man has little to do with it.
