No empirical evidence exists for man made co2 warming the planet as a result do climate alarmists admit they are indulging a faith?

Yes, it's all conjecture, and it doesn't even matter.

Extreme weather has been down for decades.  I have documented this with peer review and other authoritative sources.  Climate deaths are also down.

Polar bears are up, global trees are up, and global food production is up (see chart below).  If any alarmist here wants to honestly debate the science, then bring it. 

They won't because all they have is failed predictions from fortune telling.

There's plenty of empirical evidence--as CO2 goes up, temperatures are going up There are measurements of incoming and outgoing infrared radiation, showing increased downward radiation from CO2, there are laboratory measurements of CO2 absorption/emission. Exactly what were you expecting, a post-it note on thermometers saying "Warmer temperatures are due to CO2"?

I think there is evidence but it is misinterpreted or given importance greater than it really has. Against the common view, carbon dioxide makes up .0004 percent of the Earth's atmosphere and therefore is a small part of it.
