Your talking points are showing, but they are fairly devoid of facts.

Ninety-seven percent of the climate scientists surveyed believe
“global average temperatures have increased” during the past century.

Eighty-four percent say they personally believe human-induced warming
is occurring, and 74% agree that “currently available scientific
evidence” substantiates its occurrence. Only 5% believe that human
activity does not contribute to greenhouse warming; the rest are
unsure.

"Climate" Scientists Agree on Warming, Disagree on Dangers, and Don’t
Trust the Media’s Coverage of Climate Change

If man has had any effects of the changing climate, it is in the form of
paved streets, parking lots, asphalt roofs, etc. not "Greenhouse Gases"
(I suspect the gases coming from the white house and democrats in
congress are doing more damage than greenhouse gases)

If you will look at the long term science studies like paleontology and
archeology, you will see that the temperatures current earth climate are
at a peak that has periodically occurred over the last several hundreds
of thousand years. If we had any thing to fear from the climate it
would be significant drops in temperature not warming as shown by those
studies.
