Only a few
percent change in cloud cover will more than swamp the estimated CO2 effect, he suggested.
This effect causes a total swing of about three
percent change in cloud cover.
If cloud cover can vary as noted per the paper, and just a few
percent change in cloud cover can have a large effect to temperatures, then how much confidence can one have in the «CO2 is the greatest driver of increased temperatures?
A 1
percent change in clouds could account for all of the shifts in climate over the past 2000 years.

Percent change in zonally - averaged
cloud cover over the oceans as a function of latitude and height
in response to an instantaneous quadrupling of CO2, decomposed into two parts: (a) a fast adjustment that occurs before surface temperatures have warmed appreciably, and (b) a part that scales linearly with the warming of surface temperature as the system adjusts to the increase
in CO2.
