Agreed the cold and snow do not disprove global warming. But they do not prove it and certainly do not prove that global warming is man made.

Find it strange that volcanic eruptions cause global cooling while man made emissions cause global cooling.

Having a court decide that Co2 is a polutant also makes the warming argument look less convincing.

Volcanic eruptions produce soot (that black stuff you can find in a fireplace) get enough of it into our atmosphere and its so thick that sunlight has a harder time breaking through it, and thus it has a harder time reaching the earth and making it warm.

Carbon Dioxide on the other hand isn’t as thick as soot, thus sunlight can get in, but it can’t “get back out” and so it end up striking the Earth a second (or third, or fourth) time making it even hotter.

Why don’t you consider consider Co2 to be a pollutant?
