What evidence convinced you that carbon emissions are having a deleterious effect on the climate?

Consider how complicated the climate is. This is a dynamical system, cosmic in scale, with effectively an infinite amount of variables to consider. The climate has cooled and warmed in the past without any variation in CO2 concentration.

The idea that a trace increase in a trace gas in the atmosphere is "harmful" in any measurable way is ridiculous.

What evidence convinced you that carbon emissions are having a deleterious effect on the climate?

The fact that carbon dioxide absorbs infrared. As long as you accept that fact there's no escaping that increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increases infrared absorption in the atmosphere. More infrared absorption means more entropy in the atmosphere. Unless you have a specific mechanism that removes that entropy from the atmosphere there's no disputing the consequences.
