It is impossible to have an opinion on this topic without being personally scorched (as opposed to being 'globally warmed').
I appreciated the research you and the OP did. I pointed out the ideas that co2 was fingered as the cause was not supported by the quote you posted. I also pointed out that a totally opposed position was also possible from the same info - that the the idea of climate alarmism. Ie you could say 'climate alarmism' has been around for a long time in order to raise fear to get the masses to move in a particular way, and that the historical facts are re-interpreted for the present day - ie that 'pollution' is the same as 'co2'.
