Global warming emerged as a very strong hypothesis in the then - obscure scientific discipline

human role in
increases in greenhouse gas emissions, particularly carbon dioxide.
While I acknowledge that the levels
of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in our atmosphere are
increasing, that climate change is real, that
human activity plays a
role in these changes and that these changes are impacting our state, I simply disagree that RGGI is an effective mechanism for addressing global warming.
By attacking the level

«Virtually everybody agrees,» he tells me, that «there has been warming in the second half

human activity.»
A certain amount
of continued warming
of the planet is projected to occur as a result

role over this time period.12 However, choices made now and in the next few decades will determine the amount
of additional future warming.

Based on an extensive literature review, we suggest that (1) climate warming occurs with great uncertainty in the magnitude
of the temperature
increase; (2) both
human activities and natural forces contribute to climate change, but their relative contributions are difficult to quantify; and (3) the dominant
role of the
increase in the atmospheric concentration
of greenhouse gases (including CO2) in the global warming claimed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is questioned by the scientific communities because
of large uncertainties in the mechanisms
of natural factors and anthropogenic activities and in the sources
of the
increased atmospheric CO2 concentration.
As the warming
of oceans is the dominating reason for the
increased content
of atmospheric carbon dioxide, and as nowadays the
human yearly portion (about 8 GtC CO2)
of the all yearly CO2 emissions (little over 200 GtC CO2) to the atmosphere is about 4 %, the
human role on the recent yearly
increase of CO2 in the atmosphere is also about 4 %.
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»»
