Until you can answer this question then I refuse to accept "Global Warming" as a threat: "What is the optimal temperature for the surface of the Earth"? Scientists cannot answer this question. Nobody knows. I CAN tell you that in periods supposedly before humanity, science has confirmed that CO2 was hundreds of times higher than it is today and that our current CO2 production is a tiny fraction of what it used to be before we even came along according to our Scientific community.

Suffice to say the question on whether humanity contributes meaningfully to the global increase of temperatures, or does not, or even slows it down - is not even close to being directly addressed, let alone answered.
People who say that "the science is settled" tend to not know that much about science, and almost every serious physicist I know realizes how fallacious the popular narrative is. There have been dozens Nobel laureates in physics dismissing the popular claims, and only a few directly supporting the AGW theory. Same among climatologists, who see how their field is being corrupted by money-hungry hijackers from the inside and regularly voice their concerns. Figures such as the "97% consensus" are literally made up with 0 data backing them up, and this whole situation strongly resembles the assault of church on the Medieval society circa 900 AD, where the claim that "the science is settled" on the existence of god was used to shut down any opposition and let the church get extremely rich and powerful at the expense of gullible peasants.
I am not exactly an authority of science, but nonetheless I believe I speak for every critically thinking scientist when I say that a large fraction of climatologists no longer follow scientific method and, instead, follow their grant money. Commercialization of science is a good thing in general, but, just like with commercialization of anything else, it has downsides.
Then, again, I come from a field where rigorous evidence is needed for any claim to be taken seriously. Standards in such fields as sociology, philosophy, and now also climate science, with regards to following the scientific method have been sliding down for quite some time, and nowadays almost any paper with numbers in it can get published given the authors have decent networking skills.
