Misconceptions such as those in the post appended below are still seen among a few people, despite the fact that tnewspaper editorials, ideological op-eds, lobbyist websites, internet wagers and political pamphlets cannot and have not been able to refute the scientific evidence and rationale for post-industrial human activity as a major contributor of global climate change.
For example, the political writers and talk show hosts appear to be unaware of the independent model-free comprehensive analysis of this issue, recently published in the prestigious scientific journal Physical Review Letters of the American Physical Society. Please see: "Global Warming Is Driven by Anthropogenic Emissions: A Time Series Analysis Approach" by Pablo F. Verdes Heidelberg Academy of Sciences, c/o Institute of Environmental Physics (http://link.aps.org/abstract/PRL/v99/e048501) This rigorous treatment of the underlying physics of global temperature changes does not rely on any computer models. It constitutes one more compelling recent piece of peer-reviewed scientific support for anthropogenic cause of global climate change. As with the rest of the scientific evidence, no op-ed contributor, blogger or internet debater has been able to refute it.
