The immense efforts only started being noticeable late in the last century. That was one of the predictions of climate scientists. The chart I keep posting is what you keep ignoring, it shows the temps since 1970's. If you think 0.16 deg C per decade is nothing to worry about, well, that is your opinion. I do agree, that if you are 60, you are unlikely to see significant problems in your life, but what about your grandkids? FWIW, I think the thing most likely to trigger real concern will be significant melting on Greenland, and I suspect that is several decades away. I will likely live to see it. TWT.

It is quite impressive that such a vast CO2 production system has raised CO2 levels as little as they have despite a century of effort Not sure what you are smoking which results in your delusions, but the vast human CO2 production system has in the course of a couple of centuries, and mostly in the last century, produced a shift in the CO2 equal to the peak to valley amplitude of the natural swing caused by orbital dynamics. Imagine that, its as those the puny, insignificant humans actually wiggled the earths orbit in terms of the effect we've had. Amazing. Always helps to actually look at data as opposed to spouting nonsense! I suppose Mq the Marv's eyeball produces something different from this data. Are the historical cycles insignificant, or should we be using nonlinear scales to shrink the human shift? What nonsense does Mq the Marv have to reinterpret the data as fits his religion?
