Yes, the volumes of evidence do site the global events you refer to.  That was my point, entirely.   While some scientists have concluded that CO2 emissions cause global warming, the vast majority recognize the strong correlation and have decided that the risk of inaction is too great so something must be done.   Very, very few scientists hold the position that there is no correlation and no action is required.  

45 is pitching that there is no correlation, no risk and no need to take action.  It is a short-sighted, intellectually lazy and horribly selfish position.   Snake oil, anyone?
