> You can do the experiment yourself with some children using a plastic water bottle, a thermometer, and a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. We understand this physics extremely well.

If you can't see how ridiculous that sounds, you might not understand how people become skeptical about climate science.

If we really understand these physics so well, why have most of the predictions been wrong?

That graph is a known fraud. See: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/climate-consensus-97...

Don't trust the CATO when it comes to climate (at the very least). They are known negationists. If you understand basic level physics, read the IPCC reports and the realclimate blog.
