   You stated that “I know global warming is real, the thing that I said is that nobody has proven yet that men activities has increased the rate of global warming”. Here is some good data visualization that shows man made greenhouse gases are causing global warming. Examples: https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2015-whats-warming-the-world/, https://xkcd.com/1732/. We also know the carbon footprint in the atmosphere is from fossil fuels that we are using (you can research from Google). I don’t think the global warming we’re having right now is natural as you inferred, judging from the data.

   I loved that you shared this with me Tim! This is a really great example of how someone can take data, then show a correlation and then proclaim it as a fact. But having a correlation has nothing to do with it being a fact. The way I always explain this is that data says that 89% of child molesters when arrested (in the US), have change (coins) in their possession. So does that mean if you reach into your pocket and you have a quarter and two nickels, that your a child molester? Of course not. But the correlation is easy to show. I could show you a bunch of data that shows that we have had increases in temperature but no increase in CO2. And I can also show you where we have had increases in CO2 and tempetures dropped. But instead (and much more fun) lets look at the correlation between CO2 & temperature and then look at the correlation of Debt to GTP & temperature. As you can see global warming matches us better to Dept to GTP than it does to CO2 levels! So unfortunately your wrong on this. Which is okay. And I really appreciate your listening to the show and for reaching out and sharing this 🙂 https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/0fcbef184b024fa4489d1cc4885fd99342421e69455448dd98acdcaba93b5acc.png
