"3) Warmer periods of the Earth's history came around 800 years before rises in CO2 levels."
Outright lie

"4) After World War II, there was a huge surge in recorded CO2 emissions but global temperatures fell for four decades after 1940."
Yup, aerosol pollution, but CO2 won
"5) Throughout the Earth's history, temperatures have often been warmer than now and CO2 levels have often been higher more than ten times as high."
Not since mammals.
CO2 levels at 15 million year high

"6) Significant changes in climate have continually occurred throughout geologic time."
Not since most modern life evolved.

Atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration is expected to exceed 500 parts per million and global temperatures to rise by at least 2C by 2050 to 2100, values that significantly exceed those of at least the past 420,000 years during which most extant marine organisms evolved."

Batting a big fat zero there, goober.
