Off course noncomputer handwaiving based models that predict plant growth will absorb excess CO2 are better despite actual data indicating otherwise.

While I typically dislike Bowser's right versus left slant on things (they're both wrong much of the time) he is quite correct that models are NEVER exact. One among many issues you have repeatedly ignored.

What should be debated is the degree of accuracy required and how to weigh the risks of taking action versus the risks of inaction, but to do that you and others would actually have to admit that there are real risks associated with global warming.
