Climate Change... its the sun... again.

So no one here except me, stu and db thinks that CO2 is a GHG. An important one. Interesting.

Hey dipshit

CO2 levels have fluctuated wildly long before humans ever burned fossil fuels for energy. Look it up you ignorant fuck

And yes humans are only responsible for three percent of CO2 emissions!!!!!! Look it up!!!!!!

And asteroids used to bombard the Earth daily. I hope that if we saw (a big) one coming at us now we'd at least consider how to prevent a hit.

And me. So long as the physics of the molecule as it reacts to IR at wavelengths greater than 4000 nanometers has not changed, anyway.

And how much increase in the atmospheric levels do you think are we responsible for? Because science says it's 40%.

Try thinking now without using meaningless right wing propaganda talking points.

Oh sorry Ric. My bad to forget you.

Years ago, not long after Hansen made his splash, a group of National Academy members published a graph showing strong correlation between solar activity and what is now called the temperature anomaly. I'm glad to see this more recent paper has followed up on what seems like an obvious connection that one expects should be there -- keeping in mind that correlation does not prove cause. This seems to be very nice work by Douglass and Knox published in the highly regarded Physics Letters. Thank you Jem, for turning this up. (Interestingly, if I recall correctly, I think that long-ago graph of solar activity versus temperature was circulated in a letter, before Hansen himself was invited to become a member of the Academy sometime in the late 1990s.)

But solar is going down even as temps soar higher.

No worries, mate, I'm trying to forget my Self.

thanks, but it was not great effort... lets give the most viewed climate website in the world the credit.

Yes, and the National Enquirer is the most widely read paper.

So (as noted in many scientific papers) if mankind is responsible for only 3% of overall CO2 emissions then how is man causing a 40% increase in CO2 in the atmosphere?
