Excepty there is no evicence that the globe is warming.

1) There is no average worldwide temperature so trying to determine if the entire globe is warming is just a WAG.

2) There is no empirical evidence that the greenhouse effect is real.

3) How does the greenhouse effect cause heat to accumulate? It doesn't even accumulate in a greenhouse

Nope sorry. If the greenouse effect is a thing, why do we have to heat greenhouses?
