It never quite seemed right to me that CO2 causes all the trouble when even after all the years of industrial production it is only .039 percent of the atmosphere. That’s 385 parts per million. Yet this tiny trace is supposed to melt the icecaps and kill us all or whatever.

Yet the same people who claim this will totally deny that the sun might be having an effect on the climate. The sun, into which you can fit 1.3 million Earths. The sun… you know, that big blazing ball of fire in the sky. Hmmm, so if that gets hotter or cooler, it has no effect. But a few specs of CO2 in the air are going to kill all the polar bears. Yah.

It doesn’t pass the smell test.

If you want to get a visual sense of the difference in size between the earth and the sun, here is a good representation:
