Progress is continuing apace; and when (I choose to use that word rather than «if») the

science illuminating the extent
of the human influence on
climate is not «settled» for many specific, and important, points, even though the basic case for rising risks from rising concentrations
of greenhouse gases is

of experts (even if you take the intergovernmental panel's
findings with a grain
of salt).
