so considered the negative forcings mentioned).

contributions that could be significant, or even measurable.
Item 8 could be confusing in having
so many messages: «It is extremely likely that more than half of the observed increase in global average surface temperature from 1951 to 2010 was caused by the anthropogenic increase in greenhouse gas... The best estimate of the
human - induced
contribution to warming is similar to the observed warming over this period....
So it is very reasonable to assume that the
contribution of
human - produced CO2 levels to the ph change today in upwelled waters is thus (45 / 120) *.1 or.0375.

So it seems to me that the simple way of communicating a complex problem has led to several fallacies becoming fixed in the discussions of the real problem; (1) the Earth is a black body, (2) with no materials either surrounding the systems or in the systems, (3) in radiative energy transport equilibrium, (4) response is chaotic solely based on extremely rough appeal to temporal - based chaotic response, (5) but at the same time exhibits trends, (6) but at the same time averages of chaotic response are not chaotic, (7) the mathematical model is a boundary value problem yet it is solved in the time domain, (8) absolutely all that matters is the incoming radiative energy at the TOA and the outgoing radiative energy at the Earth's surface, (9) all the physical phenomena and processes that are occurring between the TOA and the surface along with all the materials within the subsystems can be ignored, (10) including all other activities of
human kind save for our
contributions of CO2 to the atmosphere, (11) neglecting to mention that if these were true there would be no problem yet we continue to expend time and money working on the problem.
It is reasonable to theorize that some

On these figures the

so the present setup should be regarded as temporary.

E.g., research assumes greenhouse gas emissions cause warming without explicitly stating
humans are the cause»... carbon sequestration in soil is important for mitigating global climate change» (4a) No position Does not address or mention the cause of global warming (4b) Uncertain Expresses position that
human's role on recent global warming is uncertain / undefined «While the extent of
human - induced global warming is inconclusive...» (5) Implicit rejection Implies
humans have had a minimal impact on global warming without saying
so explicitly E.g., proposing a natural mechanism is the main cause of global warming»... anywhere from a major portion to all of the warming of the 20th century could plausibly result from natural causes according to these results» (6) Explicit rejection without quantification Explicitly minimizes or rejects that
humans are causing global warming»... the global temperature record provides little support for the catastrophic view of the greenhouse effect» (7) Explicit rejection with quantification Explicitly states that
humans are causing less than half of global warming «The
human contribution to the CO2 content in the atmosphere and the increase in temperature is negligible in comparison with other sources of carbon dioxide emission»»

human beings — and I believe most of
