We have been down this road before. I did see the Governor of Wyoming on television just the other day who made good common sense regarding this subject. Wyoming has more coal and other forms of fossil fuels than any other State according to the Governor. They have much to lose. Yet, he believes in climate change - boiling oceans if you want to call it that. The facts are not debatable but what to do about it is debatable. His words not mine.

That governor initially agreed to a public debate, but then backed out. I guess he later looked at the facts. Wyoming Governor Backs Out of Climate Debate - CO2 Coalition

Non-anthropogenic climate change would mean climate change not caused by humans. That would be true. Or am I reading this incorrectly?

Why? You just said it about others in your post...

You are reading it correctly---climate change caused by humans is not true.

Right. I was confused when he put non human climate change along with flat earth. One is true the other isn’t. Man caused, nope. Not true.

Ditto. The recent COVID lockdown experiment shows no human foot-print on global CO2.

Thank you for understanding that. One of the problems with getting through to some otherwise intelligent folks is that global warming is comprised of two parts, the normal and cyclical changes in climate, aka non-anthropogenic climate change. This has been exacerbated as a result of human activities, aka anthropogenic climate change, particularly since the industrial revolution. Animals and plants in a natural world are part of the ecosystem and have relatively small effect on climate change. But billions and billions of humans with their technology and machines poluting and poisoning and terraforming the planet are speeding up the warming of this world's climate. Yes, the climate would change on its own. But we humans are making it worse. Sorry, but it is the truth, and it won't stop just because a few choose to refuse to examine and accept the facts.

Have a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

"This has been exacerbated as a result of human activities, aka anthropogenic climate change?" How much did "man-made" CO2 warm the earth last year?

Thank you for posting a reasonable statement regarding anthropomorphic climate change. Now, all you need to do is take the next step, as voiced by the climatologists that are not beholden to the government or universities for funding or tenure. Specifically, that the impact of man on the climate may delay the next period of cyclical glaciation by 5,000 years, but that is due to the rise of agriculture in Asia over the past 8,000 years, not 150 years of burning fossil fuels. The true believers in the false narrative of global warming are merely the lemmings that think worldwide catastrophic warming is imminent. The real powers behind that movement are those that stand to gain if the world is stupid enough to spend $130 TRILLION to follow the Paris accords. (And the media is concerned with porch pirates and gift card scammers---small potatoes in comparison)

So, your solution is mandatory abortion, sterilization, genocide, birth limits? Or, spend/waste trillions of dollars on studying and then changing labels so that we can spend more money for the same results.....nothing burger.

Your question shows you don't get it.
