If you look at all the Global Carbon Cycle models, the man made output levels are between 2.5% and 3.6% of the total earths atmosphere. That means that the .0004% of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere caused by man is .(0000144% —- a little over half way down the page
The US produces 5.1 billion metric tons of man made CO2, while global man made CO2 is 32.5 billion metric tons or said another way the US produces about 15% of the world out put of CO2.
So of the .0000144% man made CO2 the US is responsible for 15% of it.
CO2 is measured in PPM(parts per million), this is a tiny and almost insignificant gas, Yet it somehow has been used in propaganda to support a 1.5 trillion dollar industry.
Another little kicker, the IPCC, (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change—UN) has never used Water Vapor as a green house gas in any of its models. According to NASA Water Vapor is a green house gas, and makes up 95% of the trace elements in the atmosphere. That kind of throws a wench in any models created here to fore.

Further: If you look at the findings of the Vostok Ice Core project( http://joannenova.com.au/global-warming-2/ice-core-graph/) you see that over the last 800,000 years the earth has gone through several warming periods. The Roman Warming Period and the Medieval Warming Period to name two. Each warming period is followed by a cooling period, Dark ages cool period and the Little Ice Age, followed the above two warming periods. Both of the above named warming periods, happened way, way before the industrial age, where today’s carbon based fuels were in use.
Most of the talk and models focus on the last relatively few years 1900 to present day. The use measurements recorded by man and satellites, and ignore earths long history. Most will not even admit that there was a Medieval Warming Period. However, we know via the Vostok project that warming and cooling of the earth was happening long before fossil fuels were being used. So how can they be the single blame, for a current warming nonoccurence.
Space based measurements of Carbon Dioxide:
The measurement of co2 for the past 10,000 years was take from two ice domes, the Taylor Dome and the Law Dome. In 1950 direct measurements were taken from Mount Mauna Loa in Hawaii, Mauna Loa is a volcano.
The first satellite mission designed to measure CO2 was the interferometric monitor for Green house gases on board the ADEOS I satellite in 1996. NASA launched the Aqua Satellite on May 4, 2002, this satellite carried the Atmospheric infrared sounder, which is designed to support climate research and improve weather forecasting.
If you look at the Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide levels as presented on ( https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn11638-climate-myths-human-co2-emissions-are-too-tiny-to-matter/ ) You will see that the dramatic increase in the PPM of CO2 starts just a bit before 1960, just at the time that direct measurements began and we stopped using ice core data
