CO2 emissions
in particular continue to increase at a rapid rate; ii) the effect of these gases is to warm the climate and it is very likely that most of the warming over the last 50
years was
in fact driven by these increases; and iii) the sensitivity of the climate is very likely large enough that serious consequences can be expected if carbon emissions continue on this path.
In particular,
CO2 levels started to rise from full glacial levels of about 180 parts per million (ppm), reaching 265 ppm 10,000
years ago (or ~ 2.1 W / m2 radiative forcing), and with another slow ~ 15 ppm rise during the Holocene.
The occurrence of El Ninos
in particular years, and their strength, will somewhat affect the global and tropical mean temperatures, but unless El Nino starts doing something really, really different, this effect is likely to be much smaller than the temperature increase due to doubling
CO2.

If however you're referring to the two -
year - long process by which I arrived at the poster,
in order to see the pre-1970 oscillations more clearly I detrended HadCRUT3 with an estimate of
CO2 - induced global warming, without however committing to any
particular climate sensitivity.
Each of these components, C1, C2 and C3, is then associated with some fraction of the emissions into the atmosphere, E, and a
particular removal mechanism: where b3 (= 0.1) is a fixed constant representing the Revelle buffer factor, and b1 is a fixed constant such that b1 + b3 = 0.3 [11]; b1 represents the fraction of atmospheric
CO2 that would remain
in the atmosphere following an injection of carbon
in the absence of the equilibrium response and ocean advection; b0 represents an adjustable time constant, the inverse of which is of order 200
years.
I totally agree with your criticisms of the IPCC,
in particular that they have ignored the 60 -
year cycle and that some of the temperature rise that they attributed to
CO2 should instead have been attributed to the rising phase of the cycle.
From this starting point, and the data
in the graphs above on this page that assume a pre-1800
CO2 level of 280 ppmv, we should be able to determine how many ppmv's of
CO2 were emitted by man at any
particular year in question, right?
I do not find the CAGW argument to be superficially attractive given that we are here some 4 1/2 billion
years after the planet was formed during which time there have been significant climatic changes (far exceeeding those presently happening) and
in particular times when
CO2 has been about 1000 times higher without catastrophic effect.
In particular, they say that natural chemical reactions under 78,000 square kilometers (30,000 square miles) of ocean floor off California, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia could lock in as much as 150 years of U.S. CO2 producti

CO2 production
We can simulate the «blade» of the stick during the last 100
years (
CO2 increase), but there is no
particular change to external forcing
in the earlier period that we know about.
