Except in mathematics, scientific proof does not exist at all: https://www.forbes.com/sites/startswithabang/2017/11/22/scientific-proof-is-a-myth/. There is evidence for causation, though: https://www.nature.com/articles/srep21691. Demanding proof is misleading. Although the axes have been chosen to mask correlation, the graph in the tweet shows correlation between mid-England temperature and CO₂.

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1694386725324550472

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
