There is no proof whatsover that CO2 levels have caused warming in the past.
And even if you assumed CO2 levels did, where did the CO2 come from?
It is much more simple (Occam's) to think CO2 levels went up because the warmer climate
had more animals populate the earth....
But even that may not be so.

Without the [fossile] energy companies there would be no media, no energy,
as your car does not run on electricity (yet).
Without those machines, used to build cities, roads, transport goods, there would be no civilisation
and not even internet, and no printing material, no paper, some paper manufacturers have their own power plants.
Been there.
Now wake up from your green dreams.
Or renounce it all, and go live on one of the last energy free little islands... atolls...

Green 2009 == Red.

Once green meant people who really were concerned about the
environment. Now it's just an entree, a pretext, a populist theme to
gain power; a backdoor. One of Alinsky's Rules.

Nothing has changed. The greenies have always been watermelons.

Not to mention that the warming cycles PRECEDE the elevations in CO2
levels. This is pretty obvious, when you consider that cold water can hold
more CO2 in solution than warm water can.

But Bill has faith, which trumps facts, like this inconvenient one:
