Stressors include climatic (e.g. shifts in seasons), socio - economic (e.g. market volatility), and environmental (e.g. destruction of forest) factors, that interact and reinforce each other across space and time to affect livelihood opportunities and decision making.

The article ends: «We shall be able to test the carbon dioxide theory against other theories of climatic change quite conclusively during the next half - century... if carbon dioxide is the most important factor, long - term temperature records will rise continuously as long as man consumes the earth's reserves of fossil fuels».

These stem from a diversity of site - specific conditions, including, but not limited to: local vegetation; presence of building structures and contributions made by such structures involving energy use, heating and air conditioning, etc; exposure to winds, the wind velocities determined by climatic factors and also whether certain wind directions are more favored than others by terrain or the presence or absence thereof to bodies of water; proximity to grass, asphalt, concrete or other material surfaces; the physical conditions of the CRS itself which include: the exact location of the temperature sensors within it, the degree of unimpeded flow of external air through the CRS, the character of the paint used; the exact height of the instrument above the external surface (noting that when the ground is covered by 3 feet of snow, the temperature instrument is about 60 % closer to, or less than 2 feet, above an excellent radiating surface, much closer than it would be under snow - free conditions).

In addition, Ridley did not make it clear that Myneni had suggested that 42 % of the 14 % increase in annual productivity «can be attributed to relaxation of climatic constraints to plant growth,» with «57 % to other «anthropogenic factors»,» whereas the paper published in the journal «Nature Climate Change» in April 2016 did not present a figure for annual productivity, instead concluding that 25 % to 50 % of the Earth's vegetated area had greened, with about 70 % of this trend attributable to carbon dioxide fertilization.

The most likely candidate for that climatic variable force that comes to mind is solar variability (because I can think of no other force that can change or reverse in a different trend often enough, and quick enough to account for the historical climatic record) and the primary and secondary effects associated with this solar variability which I feel are a significant player in glacial / inter-glacial cycles, counter climatic trends when taken into consideration with these factors which are, land / ocean arrangements, mean land elevation, mean magnetic field strength of the earth (magnetic excursions), the mean state of the climate (average global temperature), the initial state of the earth's climate (how close to interglacial - glacial threshold condition it is) the state of random terrestrial (violent volcanic eruption, or a random atmospheric circulation / oceanic pattern that feeds upon itself possibly) / extra terrestrial events (super-nova in vicinity of earth or a random impact) along with Milankovitch Cycles.

In a paper entitled, «Shifting public opinion on climate change: an empirical assessment of factors influencing concern over climate change in the U.S.,» published in the journal Climatic Change, researchers at Drexel University, McGill University, and Ohio State University showed that the stated positions of politicians and other «elites» in society is the major factor driving public opinion.

The gain or loss is determined by changes in sources and sinks which are controlled by other climatic factors, in particular, temperature and soil moisture, and that these changes are sufficient to reduce the anthropogenic contribution to the level of noise.

Forest degradation and forest land conversion are different aspects of the same problem, caused by multiple and interacting factors, such as economic growth, macroeconomic policies, population movements and the legislative framework, intertwined with climatic variation, economic activities and urbanization, among others.

But in the context of the centennial or millennial time scale of interest, carbon dioxide is an anthropogenic factor, like other forms of pollution, not a natural «climatic» factor.

I think we are seeing nothing more than climatic varation caused by our orbit, sun activty and a number of other related natural factors, but the trouble is that we take a short term view of weather and think in terms of what we remember as Children not what has gone on in recent history - After all 5000 years is the blink of an eye in the context of the age of the earth and mans habitation of it.
