I do not wish to upset you but your comments do not make thermodynamic sense. 

This is not very informative. I presume you are talking about what I wrote about my building. Can you say where you think they are wrong?

 

I would also disagree with you about the science in a fairly spectacular way. However, you can easily check for yourself. 

Thank you for the tip. 

NASA publishes the figures from its satellite temperature probe and you will see from these that the Earth overall has cooled for the last 6.5 years at least

Oh, dear, here we go again. Roll out the tropes. I wonder what order they are going to come in this time?

“The earth overall has cooled” is a pretty vague statement and as it is does not make much sense. “The Earth” radiates out what it receives from the sun. There is a general equilibrium. What most people are concerned about is tropospheric, actually biospheric, warming. This is accompanied by stratospheric cooling. Roughly how much was first shown, I think, by a gentleman named Manabe, who just won the Physics Nobel. 

 

 If the CO2 hypothesis were anywhere near correct or useful it would not work because it predicts a temperature rise entirely based on CO2 levels which have increased linearly over the period. 

That C02 emissions lead to tropospheric temperature rise is not appropriately called a “hypothesis”. It was explained in the 19th century. The Nobel prize proclamation for 2021 said that Klaus Hasselmann's fingerprinting technique has “been used to prove that the increased temperature in the atmosphere is due to human emissions of carbon dioxide.” Note that word “prove”. Are you as good as that?  

 

Another clue is the Muna Loa CO2 figures which show a linear rate even though during the Covid the fossil fuel use has reduced by about 30% Worldwide. This should show as a change in the CO2 graph, which it does not. 

The fact that you think somewhat reduced CO2 emissions in one year (normally it takes years to estimate emissions since the data takes a while to assimilate) should lead to reductions in Keeling's series in the same year tells me quite a lot about what you know about climate science. :-( 

Would you like to explain these anomalies in your thesis?

They are not anomalies to people who understand some basic climate science. “Misunderstandings” would be a more appropriate term.
