Conclusions Even
though estimates of climate sensitivity to doubling of CO2 are most likely way over-estimated by the official climate Team, it is a scientific truth that GHGs, mainly H2O but also CO2 and others, play an important role in warming the Earth via the Atmospheric «greenhouse effect».
However, the point of this posting is to convince those WUWT readers, who, like Einstein, need a physical analogy before they will accept any mathematical abstraction, that the atmospheric «greenhouse» effect is indeed real, even
though estimates of climate sensitivity to doubling of CO2 are most likely way over-estimated by the official climate Team.
Not exact matches
This figure is
of more relevance to risk management than raw
climate sensitivity estimates (essential
though they are for doing the calculations).
[Short response: Mainstream view is that
climate sensitivity (equilibrium warming for a doubling
of CO2) is 1.5 to 4.5 C,
though higher
estimates can not be discounted.
