Nope. postulation.

You like to ignore visible light don't you? You haven't explained the downwelling IR radiation as part of that visible light, and its effect on CO2.

Takes something special to use your personal beliefs ahead of published science. Where is that published science on the warming too fast to be natural variation? You must have something scientific; or not.

Mere speculation.

New paper: The hiatus still exists
Apr 18th, 2017 at 12:33pm Quote
"The subtle origins of surface-warming hiatuses"



"Budgeting with existing observations cannot constrain the origin of the recent hiatus, because the uncertainty in observations dwarfs the small flux deviations that could cause a hiatus. The sensitivity of these flux deviations to the observational dataset and to energy budget choices helps explain why previous studies conflict, and suggests that the origin of the recent hiatus may never be identified."

To which you responded - "Interesting paper"

Tell me Lees, why do YOU deny climate change in general and AGW in particular. You make yourself look silly several times doing so. So. . .why deny?

Why do you deny, Gregg? Do you deny that the globe is warming?

Really? Please quote where I have said the climate doesn't change.

Jovial Monk wrote on Apr 29^th, 2017 at 8:03pm:



And this also. As I have said many times man has contributed through land use change.

So tell me ... why do you feel the need to continually lie?
Why do you feel the need to label people?
Why do you feel the need to make sch!tt up?

The one admitted to by the IPCC in AR5. Chapter 9 Box 9.2

You can accept climate change

You can accept anthropogenic global warming

All of it is a valid hypothesis / theory


What no-one should accept is that Australia's approx 1% of carbon output is worth doing anything about. We could cut out output by 100% and not a single thing will change.

We are irrelevant, politically and pollutionally; no-one gives a sh1t about our opinions or actions on the matter.


If it in out best interest to make some changes fine, but don't scream the world in going to end unless "we" do something now. It may very well end, but not because did or did not do something.
