Anthropogenic global warming (AGW), a
recent warming of the Earth's lower atmosphere as evidenced by the

recent global temperature movements.
2) In addition to estimates of climate sensitivity, there are other lines of evidence showing that
anthropogenic activity (predominately increased CO2) caused most of the
recent global warming; this provides further credence for the > = 95 % certainty on the attribution point.
Polititicians, all over the world, have been made believe, that the
recent increase of CO2 content in atmosphere is dominated by
anthropogenic CO2 emissions caused by burning fossile fuels, and that the
recent global warming is mainly attributed to the
recent increase of CO2 content in atmosphere.
Instead the
recent total CO2 increase in atmosphere has been about 2 ppm, where, according to natural laws, the
anthropogenic share is 0.08 ppm; the total increase of CO2 content in atmosphere has been caused by
warming of
global sea surface, especially on the areas where sea surface CO2 sinks are.»
This implies that
recent global warming is not statistically significantly related to
anthropogenic forcing.
Any
warming observed prior to WWII is indicative of «
global warming» (GW), but (since there were no significant human GHG emissions yet) is counterindicative of

warming (AGW), since something other than human GHGs caused it, raising the question: if non GH
warming caused this
warming, could it not also have caused the most
recent extended
warming period?
A
recent survey of climate change literature for 2017 revealed that the alleged «consensus» behind the dangers of

As such, we find that

These results provide solid evidence that
recent global warming was indeed caused by the greenhouse effect of
anthropogenic halogenated gases.
Ergo acceptance of greenhouse gases as the major contributor to
global warming strongly implies that
anthropogenic causes are the major contributor to
recent warming.
The new position statement is equivocal, beginning with the observation that «the AAPG membership is divided on the degree of influence that

anthropogenic global warming requires climate models of sufficient resolution to capture storms and their associated rainfall.»
After reviewing evidence in both the latest
global data (HadCRUT4) and the longest instrumental record, Central England Temperature, a revised picture is emerging that gives a consistent attribution for each multidecadal episode of
warming and cooling in
recent history, and suggests that the
anthropogenic global warming trends might have been overestimated by a factor of two in the second half of the 20th century.
Which is why it's clear that
anthropogenic climate change to date can not be held responsible for large scale loss of species, because
global warming is so
recent in its inception.
I've found a paper that disagrees with the consensus that the
recent warming is mostly
anthropogenic: http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/ep/preprint/mayjun96/4344.html «The simulation implies that the solar part of the forcing, alone, would account for 71 % of the
global mean temperature variance, compared to 51 % for the greenhouse gases part, alone.»
As to» the truth», researchers have not expressed any evidence based on empiric observations according to which the trend of
recent multidecadal
global warming could have been controlled by
anthropogenic CO2 emissions to atmospere.
The current approach that is generally pursued assumes essentially that past climate variability is indistinguishable from a stochastic red - noise process... Given such a null hypothesis, the official consensus of IPCC (1995) tilts towards a
global warming effect of
recent trace - gas emissions, which exceeds the cooling effect of
anthropogenic aerosol emissions.»
