So you do think global warming is happening? I'm confused. Your essay appeared to argue we didn't know nearly enough, but if CO2 was higher and temperatures were higher then there is no argument against CO2 raising the temperature.

Also, termites produce more methane than people.
No they do not. I just did some reasearch and came to conclude termites produce at best 4% of global methane emissions and humans produce about 60%.

And about water vapor, higher temperatures mean more water vapor, so more clouds = more cooling? Actually, these effects are unclear.

Water vapor (according to most studies I've read) is responsible for approximately 70% of the greenhouse effect that keeps our planet in a survivable temperature range.
I'm curious as to how these effects are unclear given we have understood the water cycle for quite some time. Sure, the effects of more water vapor can be complicated...

Water vapor makes up a decent chunk of the worlds greenhouse gas. However, it doesn't have much of anything to do with global warming.



Talisman brought up most of the other things I would have said >__>
