Not 97% but .3% of Climatologists agree.

Quote from futurecurrents:

So you know CO2 is a greenhouse gas. We know it is responsible for most of the long term greenhouse effect and it's levels are like the setting on the earth's thermostat and the level of CO2 have gone up 40% from man and temps are rapidly rising for no other reason.

What was your question again?

BTW, the dinosaurs died due to climate change.

Climate change, yes. It got cooler.

My question is simple, yet you continue to not answer it.

I agree that CO2 is a greenhouse gas. It is this statement that you haven't proved:

You can show that CO2 has gone up 40% from whatever given point you want to pick. That's easy. But how can you say that temperatures are rapidly rising for no other reason? That's an enormous leap of logic.

Because they looked into the other reasons and they could not explain it by them. Only by considering CO2 can it be explained. The sun for instance did not suddenly become hotter at the start of the industrial revolution. If you actually read the link I gave you from NOAA you would know this.
 
and the earth did not suddenly start warming outside of natural variability.

there is a good chance there nothing to find because there is nothing to outside the natural cycling to explain.

the ocean has been warming so it release c02 the co2 level goes up.

now the earth stopped warming about 16 years ago will the ocean stop warming next...

or is the ocean being warmed by underwater valcanoes and rifts.

At this year’s Fall Meeting of American Geophysical Union, held in San Francisco that I attended, prominent solar scientists made a presentation on weak Solar Cycle 24 and its consequences. They included:

Nat Gopalswamy, astrophysicist, Solar Physics Laboratory, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Maryland
Leif Svalgaard, senior research scientist, W. W. Hansen Experimental Physics Laboratory, Stanford University, Stanford, California
Marty Mlynczak, senior research scientist, Climate Science Branch, NASA Langley Research Center, Hampton, Virginia
Joe Giacalone, professor and associate director, Lunar and Planetary Laboratory, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona
They agreed that the current solar cycle is on track to be the weakest in 100 years and that is an unprecedented opportunity for studying the Sun during this period. While the weak solar cycle trend is not new for the Sun, it is new and interesting for scientists who observe and measure it today with modern instruments and methods.

What does warming outside of natural variability even mean? Sounds like your typical doublespeak.


Has it been hotter? Yes. Colder? Yes.

The rate of rise is the important thing and the rate is unnatural.

Oh look. It looks like a hockey stick!
