    Climate Scientist changes his mind on the cause of climate change

    In 2005 someone asked Dr Pielke

    Is Most Of The Observed Warming Over The Last 50 Years Likely To Have Been Due To The Increase In Greenhouse Gas Concentrations”?

    ...and he replied

    Yes.

    He's now changed his mind and revised his answer to the question and says

    No.

    Just as an aside...no he isn't a right wing nutter, and has been debating on his blog with Keith Trenberth, about the missing heat, it seems the two are actually friends, or at least on very good terms.

    Update To Andy Revkin’s Question In 2005: “Is Most Of The Observed Warming Over The Last 50 Years Likely To Have Been Due To The Increase In Greenhouse Gas Concentrations

    Not my words

    If you disagree take it up with him.

    Don't worry about it Blaster. I think we have convinced most of the rational thinkers on here. And it would be frivolous, time-consuming, and ultimately pointless to try and shine the light of knowledge into the darkest depths of sasguru's miniscule brain. Let us leave him in his blissful ignorance, toiling away with his flawed modelling, searching for hockeystick enlightenment.

            The 2010 answer to the question by Andy Revkin

            “Is most of the observed warming over the last 50 years likely to have been due to the increase in greenhouse gas concentrations”?

            remains NO.

            The added greenhouse gases from human activity clearly have a role in increasing the heat content of the climate system from what it otherwise would be. However, there are other equally or even more important significant human climate forcings, as I summarized in my 2005 post and in the 2009 article
            Man who believed in man-made global warming still believes in man-made global warming shocker!
