The mainstream science states that the current warming is driven by anthroprogenic CO2 emissions, clear and simple. The psuedo-scientific mainstream is stating this, when they haven't even taken into account the 40% decline in phytoplankton, which are directly responsible for sending 25% of the CO2 (carbon) to the bottom of the oceans. Ocean waters may be CO2 sinks, but they don't sequester the carbon at the ocean floor as solid carbon based organic matter.. That requires phytoplankton, as well as the fecal matter of various marine life that feed upon it, to send that carbon to the bottom. Yet, you have the stupidity to tell us that the 30% rise of atmospheric CO2 has nothing to do with the 40% decline of oceanic phytoplankton, right? And you assert that I don't understand "Natural"??!! So don't tell me just because they call themselves "mainstream" that this is actually the case. That's like Michael Mann saying he won the Nobel Peace Prize.. This is just more of the propaganda that is destroying the scientific process with regard to understand global climate. Hawk
