Interestingly, this kind of statement even though relatively crude can be thought of under the general term - logical fallacy. And specifically it can be called a Red Herring, which is a term for a misdirection in a DEBATE, similar to a smokescreen. Also interesting are - the Strawman fallacy, the Slippery Slope fallacy, the Begging the Question fallacy, and the Post Hoc fallacy.
..........that post also proves that what I said, "The graph of world temperature increases for the last 30 years can NOT be REFUTED in any way" !!!!!!!
