Bob, I admit that I don't have a clue whether warming is or isn't occuring.  Let me accept everything you've said about it so far for the purpose of discussion.  You obviously see global warming as real and as dangerous?  You mentioned at least one historical reference to the same kind of phenomena happening.  I'm assuming you believe that global warming has occured in the past.  If such warming in the past happend at a time well before the industrial revolution, I assume your position is that human behavior alone (or to a great extent) isn't responsible for the present warming?  Let me ask a few questions of you.

 

If I've correctly described your position, (1) what if anything can be done to reverse the present warming?  (2) What would be the effect of each of your proposed solutions on global warming?  (3) Would those effects be sufficient to offset all of the warming, and if not, would they be sufficient to eliminate the dangers you say would occur?  (4) Any clue what your proposed solutions would cost us?  (5) Do your answers to my preceding questions assume that India and China will or will not adopt your proposed solutions?  Thank you.
