You talk as if the Earth itself is a star, and without Sun's periodic weakening the Earth would burn to a crisp. Without the Sun's influence the Earth would be a cold ball, despite all the talk of oven hot temperatures occurring if the climate continues to warm. Without the Sun warming the Earth, how hot do you surmise Earth would be? Probably not warm enough to heat your hands properly outdoors, since Earth produces only a small amount of it own heat. That heat radiates into the cold vacuum of space. We know there have been ice ages and interglacial periods in Earth's climate history. They occurred without the influence of humans or their tools. It's comical how many people think because we are here now, wear suits and ties, and have laptop computers, that we are going to put a stop to these cycles...rubbish. We may be able to control the climate if we controlled the energy output from the Sun, the Earth's Obliquity/ eccentricity, change the alignment of the planets, and other galactic occurrences, we could then talk about humans changing the climate. Humans have become fat, lazy, and arrogant. Unlike our ancestors that learned to adapt to the changing climate...oh no not us! We will foolishly think we can change it, without the ability to control the galactic forces I listed earlier. We here about the horrible amount of greenhouse gases from CO2-woe is me! However, when we examine green house gases we discover that only around 5% to 6 % of the atmosphere contains greenhouse gasses. Of that percentage only around 1% is CO2, most of it is water vapor. I guess that why it always listed as PPM, 600 PPM stresses the urgency more than 0.01. It seems to me that if a planet has no change in climate, it would be a dead planet.
