You're right that timeframe selection can influence conclusions. However, long-term climate records confirm anthropogenic global warming. Natural fluctuations do exist, but data shows a clear trend: temperatures are rising since the industrial revolution, accelerating in revent decades.

Science isn't about opinions or politics; it's about evidence-based findings. Politics can't change the fact that CO2 traps heat or that glaciers are melting.

There are multiple lines of evidence supporting this: temperature records, melting ice, shifting seasons, etc.
Consensus is clear among climate scientists, i. e., >97% agree on human-caused warming. Let's rely on the overwhelming scientific evidence, rather than misconceptions.

While it's true that a greenhouse experiment can't perfectly replicate the complexity of the Earth's atmosphere, the underlying physics remains the same. CO2 and other greenhouse gases trap heat, leading to warming. This is supported by decades of climate research.
