Hi,

states that
"For instance, I often show that diagram in my lectures on climate
change but always make the point that it gives no proof of global
warming due to increased carbon dioxide."

But the whole argument as far as I can tell is green house gases
produced by man (water vapor, CO2, Ozone) is raising the mean globe
temperature since 1940. But John Ray admits no causative relationship
between CO2 and temperature. And we know Ozone produced by man has been
decreasing (won't a switch to Ethanol reverse this?) so this creates a
jumbled argument. If it can not be proved even with a 80% probability
that man-made CO2 is causing the temperature rise, what becomes of the
Global Warming position best represented by Al Gore who is not a
scientist (tobacco farmer).

If you look at the actual data of CO2 levels and global temperatures,
you can see that CO2 has no detectable effect on global temperature.
