Beyond the nonsense of measuring 'average global temperature,' which tells us nothing, we aren't living in a flat space with evenly distributed temperature, it's also a measurement without context.

A Spring day in Ohio can start at 30° peak at 75° and end at 20°

Is 2° bad? Why? How does this reflect in the desert vs. the arctic? Where is the measurement being taken?

This isn't the 'climate.'

The globe does not have a climate.

This is essentially a scare-looking chart that tells us nothing useful but easily manipulates liberals.

This doesn't show the idea is "bunk".

Some of the "objections" are also incredibly stupid. This is like claiming averages in general are "nonsense" because they don't tell you what the variance of the data is. That doesn't make the very concept of an average nonsense or bunk.

I don't have time to answer you now. I week try to get back, but it's not a concept rooted in science

And yet climate change has been proven time and time again by scientists. It’s actually one of the most heavily studied scientific discoveries currently around. 98% of scientists believe in climate change too, that’s a great place to start.

Logical fallacy alert! (Why am I not surprised?) "98% of scientists believe in climate change"? Using that as an argument is called the Faulty Appeal to Majority Authority. The basic structure of the argument is

(1) Bill believes x.

(2) Therefore x is true.

And though you cloaked this absurdity, whether accidentally or intentionally, in your comment by making this glaring logical fallacy INDIRECTLY, the point remains that you have proven nothing, nor support anything. If climate change truly were basic science, you should have easily been able to prove it without resorting to logical absurdities. But it looks like you just defeated your own argument (again!). Please feel free to comment back whenever you feel like being logical again :)
