I'm sorry, but I just don't believe that's true. You seem to be almost completely ignorant on the topic under discussion. Feel free to prove me wrong.
You tell us you're very familiar with temperature sensing instrumentation and that knowledge makes you dubious that the Earth has actually warmed. Explain this point of view to us.
The conclusion of many decades of climate science is that the human emission of CO2 and methane and human deforestation (shrinking a significant CO2 sink) has significantly raised the level of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere: CO2 has gone from 280 ppm to 400 ppm. Methane has gone from 600 ppb to 2000 ppb. The greenhouse effect, acting on those increased levels, has warmed the planet. Do you disagree? If so, why?
Besides changes in weather patterns and intensity (ex, drought in the American SW, increased temperatures across Europe, increased intensity in cyclonic weather, etc), the rise in temperature is raising the level of the world's oceans: both from melt of land-based ice and from simple thermal expansion. Do you disagree? If so, why?
