Your good at writing but you didn't answer a single question I proposed. In fact I have attended presentations here in San Diego by scientists from Scripps and they weren't able to answer those questions either. However, I noticed that you said humans are having an effect on the climate. What you didn't say is that humans are the cause of global warming. Furthermore, you used the word "appears." Does that mean your not absolutely sure, or is there a chance you might be wrong? If its true say it is, if it isn't don't imply it. The word "appears" is so subjective and over used and gives the impression your trying to cover your rear end. I have notice in jounal articles that scienetists will qualify there conclusions by using words like "appears" and "this may be the cause" or "further studies should be completed." They are all starting to sound like lawyers. Just because there is a consensus about something doesn't mean its true, the consensus could very well end up being wrong. By the way, a politician no matter if there from the right or left can't interpt science very well. Both groups do a poor job and I can give you plenty of examples.
