Flac used to call it a step-function-response to solar forcing. But the current acceleration in warming conclusively disproves that, so he's left with more of a vague handwaving that it just has to be the sun because he wants it to be the sun.
I check every day to see if Guam is still upright. At this point I have to wonder if Guam is a DENIER!!?
Introduction - Summary
Global Warming Timeline Timeline - Of note 1989, 2000, 2001 and forward. But well worth reading the whole thing.
Global Warming is not something anyone wants to be real. But it is. And the clock is ticking on our ability to avert the worst affects.
Even if ALL of the human produced greenhouse gases stopped being put into the atmosphere tomorrow, the effects of what is already in the atmosphere would continue for hundreds or thousands of years.
Get educated people. This isn't a political matter AT ALL.

I checked -- It's still upright. And the tundra hasn't floating off yet today.. You check tomorrow "K"???? ?
You are NOTHING but a fear monger, and have no more scientists that agree with you, than disagree with you. It just fits your agenda, and from what I see, you like to scare people, even when you are not a scientist, and can't more than 50% to agree with you, yet you claim it is fact.I check every day to see if Guam is still upright. At this point I have to wonder if Guam is a DENIER!!?

Yeah, and your hero got a snowball and tossed it in Congress and proclaimed "how can there be Global Warming, look at this snowball".
Pour yourself a glass of water and stand in your kitchen, "there can't possibly be a drought anywhere, look at this glass of water".
You argue at the level of a 6 year old child. Because you have no argument.
Global Warming is real and accelerating. There is no debate.

Another warmer here that doesn't know the meaning of the word acceleration..
In terms of climate time scale -- that solar radiation chart IS a step function. And the more recent Climate science backs up every assertion I've made on the topic. The Earth's climate does not turn on dime..
The Earth has NOT been cooling.
Really, Mr. Flacaltenn? And just what is preventing you from posting all these new findings? You know, articles like these;

To assess the future impact of anthropogenic greenhouse gases on global climate, we need a reliable estimate of the sensitivity of the Earth's climate to changes in radiative forcing. Climate sensitivity is conventionally defined as the equilibrium surface temperature increase for carbon dioxide doubling, ΔT 2x. Uncertainties in cloud processes spread general circulation model (GCM) estimates of this parameter over the range 1.5< ΔT 2x <4.5°C (refs 1, 2). An alternative to model-based estimates is in principle available from the reconstruction of past climates3–6, which implicitly includes cloud feedback. Here we retrieve the sensitivity of two palaeoclimates, one colder and one warmer than present, by independently reconstructing both the equilibrium surface tem-perature change and the radiative forcing. Our results yield ΔT 2x = 2.3 ±0.9 °C. This range is comparable with estimates from GCMs and inferences from recent temperature observations and ocean models7,8. Future application of the method to additional climates in the geological record might constrain climate sensitivity enough to narrow the model uncertainties of global warming predictions.
someone better be narrowing the range of climate sensitivities. Otherwise we will never know if we are gonna warm up or broil by 2050. But I doubt that you are gonna resolve a SINGLE MINDLESS NUMBER that purports to represent the entire globe and the dozens of ultra complex feedbacks that make ip climate sensitivity..
Lets discuss. You think a single number describes the entire short term and long term effects of feedbacks and storage and delays for every climate zone on the planet? Think those descriptions are LIKELY to come from paleo studies or actual thermo analysis of observed heat flows?
Ignore Global Warming deniers. The science is settled and scientists are in agreement. Global Warming is real and accelerating.
They are like Flat Earthers, UFO abductees, Birthers...
