the IPCC's Fourth Assessment Report released in 2007 which controversially concluded, "Most of the observed increase in global average temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations."
It's not controversial when it's supported by the evidence and accepted by 97% of the world's climate scientists.
Controversial would be "global warming is due to changes in TSI" or "All the world's climate scientists involved in enormous conspiracy" or "Poster Daveman actually knows what he's talking about" or "Poster Daveman likes guns because he's happy with the size of his penis". THOSE would be controversial.
If only you had made the argument about what "IT" is and that 97% of climate scientists actually DO --- support "IT"..
Haven't really succeeded at that. Nor have you succeeded in degrading the importance of NATURAL cycles and events like Ocean Thermal and TSI. In fact --- these are on the list of NEW REVELATIONS to that imaginary 97% of scientists that lead a very cloistered life looking for ONLY man-caused reasons for the tiny 0.5 degree of warming during your lifetime...
What's your theory about what happens when a body in space lowers it's outgoing radiation by increasing atmospheric GHG concentration?
