Take a beer or soda pop out of the refrigerator and open it. Leave it there until it gets warm. Notice how the CO2 left the liquid. That is what warming does. Idiot!
Open a cold beer without drinking it and letting it get warm?

The last ice age was prior to the acknowledged advent of man created CO2 emissions. Most scientists agree now that in many past ages both CO2 levels and temperatures were much higher than at the end of the 20th century.

I am not aware of any time [in say the last 50 years] when scientists didn't agree that there were
past ages where both CO2 and temperatures were higher than now.
