It may be hard to believe in the midst
of another contentious election cycle, but the
next quarter

So what we are arguing about is the validity
of a
theory (CO2 doubling causes an extra 3.7 w / m2
of climate forcing) that ITSELF shows that 86 %
of what ever bad is going to happen IS ALREADY HAPPENING and that that the
next TWO
CENTURIES of production at current rates in a worst case scenario only increase the effect from 86 % (
of 3.7 w / m2) to 101 %.
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».
From that prediction
