Global warming forced primarily by anthropogenic CO2 is a hypothesis.

Wilmking et al 2004 Recent climate warming forces contrasting growth responses of white spruce at treeline in Alaska through temperature thresholds Global Change biology 10: 1724

As long as warming forces like greenhouse gases are present, the resulting radiative forcing can extend drought - like conditions more or less indefinitely, says MacDonald, a distinguished professor of geography and of ecology and evolutionary biology at UCLA.

Reduced forcing will lead to exaggerated CS for volcanic cooling effects, which in turn will likely lead to some other warming forcing also being over-estimated.

Scientists simulate the climate warming forces driving the jet stream's sometimes erratic path

it questions the relative underlying importance of co2 as a global warming forcing agent.

In addition, the decadal warming forced by human - caused climate change is thawing ever greater portions of permafrost, which also adds near surface fuels to traditional brush and woodlands fires.

To better understand the uncertainties, we evaluated sensitivities of summer sea ice coverage to global warming forcing in models and observations... The projected ice - free summer Arctic Ocean may occur as early as in the late 2030s using a criterion of 80 % SIA loss and the Arctic regional mean surface air temperature will be likely increased by 8.5 ± 2.5 °C in winter and 3.7 ± 0.9 °C in summer by the end of this century.

So even if there is only a.00001 prob that such events could happen without increasing GHGs having a warming effect (and no other warming forcing), there is still that remote possibility of such an event happening under a no warming scenario.

Lester R. Brown, «Global Warming Forcing U.S. Coastal Population to Move Inland: An Estimated 250,000 Katrina Evacuees Are Now Climate Refugees,» Eco-Economy Update, 16 August 2006.

According to his profile at ICECAP, «His contrary views on global warming forced him into early retirement at age 58.»

If the rising ocean levels caused by global warming force us to build dikes and relocate people away from delta regions, that, too will add to what we measure as Gross Domestic Product.

Warming forces have caused millennia of dryness in California's prehistory, and greenhouses gases could do the same.

Self Service Dog Wash ~ We Provide Everything You Need (Except The Dog) Just bring your dog to our self - serve dog wash in Ashburn, VA and we will provide a raised tub (to save your back), warm water, waterproof aprons (to shield you from the shacks), shampoo & conditioner made especially for pets, towels and a warm force air dryer.

I should point out that your attribution makes the error I alluded to recently in not accounting for cooling effects — thus the warming forcings will add up to more than 100 %.

If the critical element that ice responds to is the warming forcing from an increase in CO2 then we're screwed because the rate of the growth of that is unprecedented.

As for your alternative explanation in a previous post, I am trying to think of a world subject to a warming force due to increased GHGs since the 19th century... this warming didn't materialize around the mid-century due to large quantities of aerosols emitted in the NH... somehow this NH cooling trespassed the equatorial belt and affected the SH, which not only didn't warm but cooled even more than the NH... doesn't sound very plausible, does it?

In the abstract for Sensitivity of arctic summer sea ice coverage to global warming forcing: towards reducing uncertainty in arctic climate change projections (February 15, 2010, Wiley InterScience), the IARC's Xiangdong Zhang writes:

Too many inaccuracies in reporting global warming forced me to examine it closer.
