Thanks for looking at the arithmetic - my arithmetic always needs looking at!
The million million tons to generate one degree C, can be found if you Google 'Southampton University Research confirms how global warming links to carbon emissions' and it originates from the IPCC. It's not per day or per year, it's just tons of CO2 per degree C (per planet earth).
Clearly it is a ridiculous oversimplification (although that's not how it's presented by the author !). Only 4% of CO2 emissions are anthropogenic, CO2 concentration would be more meaningful than absolute emissions, and we don't really know if CO2 leads, or lags, temperature ... However, emissions is what they beat us up with, so let's go with it.
The 400 million tons of UK CO2 emissions is per year. So divide CO2 per year by CO2 per degree C and you get degree C per year.
Yes, it makes my head hurt too 😵💫... but think of it this way; if it takes 100 bricks to build a house, and we make 4 bricks a year then we make 4/100ths of a house per year. Now swap bricks for tons of CO2 and house for degrees C and put in all the millions.
The subject of "hostility" is interesting because we can see many people (aka the 'far right') in the UK, in Ireland, Paris, Germany getting visibly hostile right now. Not about climate, but various other things ... However, the ONLY response from government is "Misinformation"! And this is dutifully echoed by mainstream media with no heterodox view allowed.
This, I think, is what makes people angry; ie, the wilful blindness to everything except 'the narrative'.
What has that got to do with climate? Well the IPCC is only funded to research anthropogenic climate change. ALL other possible inputs are outside their remit when, clearly there must be dozens of other 'control knobs' that affect global temperature. Their inevitable conclusions are then parroted by the mainstream media unchallenged under the oxymoronic banner of 'settled science'. So there it is again ... wilful blindness to the bigger picture, and, imho, that’s what generates the hostility !

During Covid ‘science’ somehow displaced clinical expertise and has made itself a target by telling us the OPPOSITE of what would have been good for us … eg;
They told you to stay indoors when you would have been safer outside,
they moved infected elderly into care homes,
they put people on ventilators … ooops
they gave people midazolam who might have recovered,
they told you to wear masks that were useless,
they stopped you going to the gym when staying fit would reduce your risk
they told you the jab was safe though they had zero evidence of long-term safety,
they told pregnant women to get vaccinated,
they inoculate millions of children who had already had the disease,
they told you natural acquired immunity would not protect you,
they told you the jab would stop the spread,
they told you the jab would stop you catching covid,
they told you nobody is safe until everybody is safe when 99.5% were not at risk anyway,
they banned early antiviral treatment,
they told you vitamin D was of not use whatsoever,
they told you the spike proteins would stay in your arm,
they told you disruption of your menstrual cycle was nothing to worry about,
they told you there's a thing called 'mild' myocarditis,
they told you it came from an animal when they knew it came from a lab,
they told you death is knocking at your door - it wasn’t,
they refuse to acknowledge the current high levels of excess deaths,
The list goes on and on.
Everything ‘scientists’ did and said was the OPPOSITE of what should have been done and said. Trust in scientist is gone … We are in the hands of fools. Or worse.

Yes, some misinformation is very convincing, like when:-
They you to stay indoors when you would have been safer outside,
they told you to wear masks that were useless,
they told you it was safe though they had zero evidence of long-term safety,
they told pregnant women to take it,
they told you natural acquired immunity would not protect you,
they told you it would stop the spread,
they told you it would stop you catching the disease,
they told you nobody is safe until everybody is safe when 99.5% were not at risk anyway,
they told you early antiviral treatment was useless,
they told you vitamin D was of not use whatsoever,
they told you the spike proteins would stay in your arm,
they told you disruption of your menstrual cycle was nothing to worry about,
they told you there's a thing called 'mild' myocarditis,
they told you it came from an animal when they knew it came from a lab,
they told you death is knocking at your door - it wasn’t,
they tell you the current world-wide high levels of excess deaths are nothing to do with it,
The list goes on and on.
But here’s the rub … ‘They’ are the authority that will decide what is misinformation.
God help us.

Correct … The idea that "carbon dioxide is the control knob on the climate" is a colossal public deception. In reality, what drives climate on short-term and long-term timeframes is a dizzyingly complex and dynamic mix of forces: solar cycles, ocean currents, water vapour, wobbles in our planet's orbit, cyclical changes in cloud cover, continental drift, cosmic radiation, and so on... Carbon dioxide is all but irrelevant within that dynamic mix but what sets it apart is that, unlike all these other forces, blaming CO2 is politically useful.
