Multiple studies published in peer-reviewed scientific journals1 show that 97 percent or more of actively publishing climate scientists agree*: Climate-warming trends over the past century are extremely likely due to human activities.

You have but to show the world that the CO2 or something else from natural forces would have caused warming anyway, and the whole case for humans causing Climate Change will blow away like yesterday's dandelions.

If you or anyone else cannot... we need to go with what we know, right?

For some reason he is ignoring her conclusions.
You mean this conclusion?

"These oscillations of the estimated terrestrial temperature do not include any human-induced factors, which were outside the scope of the current paper."

Not sure you want to use this paper to support your unfounded statement that publications are avoiding publishing science which supports the theory that GW is not man-made. But maybe you spent as much time reading the Zharkova paper as the post I wrote that you so quickly called BS on.

But she only considers natural forcings in the paper, while in interviews she affirms role role of CO2 as GHG and that any GSM will allow us time to deal more effectively with global warming.

lets see how much we cool in the next 40 to 50 years that the GSM is expected to last before you jump to the conclusion that in 600 years we will be 2.5℃ above ( what temperature is as yet to be determined ) above the temperature now? Or the temperature that we cool to during the upcoming forecast GSM?

She doesn't say i ask you do you have the crystal ball jack? He'll we both will be crab bait long before that so what's the issue?

The 97% 99% Cook studies again? Really? Look at your quote again:

"97 percent or more of actively publishing climate scientists agree"

I frankly don't even understand why you're still pushing this one, or ever pushed it. Your argument is with all those skeptic scientists, and no, there's quite a few more than just SPENCER, SPENCER, SPENCER, SPENCER, SPENCER.

What's wrong with that? That's the way it should be - as far as I can tell. I don't logically understand how that stands as criticism of scientific research establishing the existence of MMGW.

The research subject (climate here) is observed, quantified, and analyzed, according to scientific method - end of story from a science perspective.

Is the standard supposed to be that any scientist who does not conclude "there is nothing more to ever be learned about climate" -- that the scientist must therefore not be credible?

On the other hand, if there is something more to be learned about a subject, and a scientist discovers it - he/she must therefore not be credible?

I've never heard of any 1st world government just saying they are going to stop paying for scientific research of the earth's climate. If no one is ever going to say that - why wouldn't the scientists have a job either way, no matter what their research shows, way back from the beginning? When, exactly, would that fear of unemployment have started?

Why would observed and quantified scientific data "go along" in "numbers" with a mass conspiracy, and not just be what it, in fact, is?

Why would the vast majority of human climate scientists ever start such a huge, thousand part, conspiracy in the 1st place, and not just do the jobs they were paid for?

I'm not trying to make any argument - just understand the literal nuts and bolts of the conspiracy theory - on a literal ground level. How it actually, in real life, is alleged to have actually happened. I've heard a ton of vague accusations, but always in such sweeping generalities - there is no way to plug the accusations into the actual history of climate science research. Climate research was getting funded, no matter what it was finding, from the beginning, and it was always going to be funded. It's a major part of our planet, and it's always changing. So why would scientists ever feel like they needed to save their jobs from the git-go?

When did it all start, exactly?
