"I'm not saying the earth has not warmed, and that human emitted CO2 is likely the biggest cause of recent warming...
The report combined with other information may be enough to reasonably conclude that global warming from human emitted CO2 is happening, but it isn't enough to label doubters as crackpot flat earthers."

For reasonably educated people it is obvious that the global warming alarmists are the crackpot flat earthers.

They cannot figure out what is the mechanism for quasi-periodical ice ages and warming periods of 100,000 years, yet they promote their linear models for fluctuations for 100 years as unconditional truth.

They measure temperature twice a day rounded to 1 degree, yet claim to correctly estimate global averages including ocean surfaces where they have almost no met stations, and no high-resolution statistics does exist to justify their conditional sampling methods.

Based only on a dozen or two of ship expeditions, they believe that they are capable to measure to 0.5% accuracy how much millions of square miles of oceans natively outgas CO2 and how much they sink, including wild speculation of what lands and forests are doing. According to their own estimations (which are based on a parameter known to be only +-80% accurate), human emitted CO2 constitutes only 2-3% of the total natural CO2 flux, yet they declare it as a major source of warming.

They heard that the weather is a complex strange attractor, yet they believe that the 30-year average of weather is somehow magically different and easily predictable. Truly a flat earth society.
