The entire global warming scientific case is based
on the increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
from the use of fossil fuels. They don't have any
other issue, Carbon Dioxide, that's it.

That's just the science aspect of it Roger. We already know the

Imagine that. They have only one cause for the observed warming according
to James.
Astonishing. How could that be?

There's tons of good solid peer-reviewed material. Try
- the clasic study by Arrhenius, 1896,
- the IPCC WG1 report bibliographies list dozens of papers,
- try any of several textbooks, like Dr. David Archer's book,
- go to a science citation index, like ISI Web or Google Schoolar.
If my son found this material at age 14, you should be able to,
Denky.
Lastly, I've offered evidence for the CO2-temperature link on
this forum. Remember this post?
irectly observed data from the last half century give
little reason to believe that sunspots alter global
temperatures. Recent global mean surface temperatures
have not tracked sunspot numbers at all, but those same
temperatures track atmospheric CO2 concentrations very
well.
CO2 or Sunspots: Statistical Correlation Chooses
Statistical correlation is a powerful technique with
very many uses. It produces "R squared" a measure of
whether two series of measures trend together.
(Those who are new to statistical correlation and
"R squared" will find a tutorial on the subject here:
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Correlation.html
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/CorrelationCoefficient.html
Item 20 in the above shows R squared for several graphed
relationships.)
When applied to a time series of global mean surface
temperatures and data from prospective global warming
causes covering the same time period, correlation can
help locate the cause of the observed global warming.
Low "R squared" values, those near zero, can, by
themselves, totally rule out a prospective cause.
High "R squared" values indicate that a prospective
cause is very likely, but do not, by themselves,
'prove' something caused the warming. (Experimental
science rarely 'proves' something like a mathematical
proof does.)
Below are directly observed data for global mean surface
temperature, CO2 concentration, and sunspots for the last
50 years. This is as long as the longest directly
observed record of atmospheric CO2 concentration.
The R^2 value for the correlation of CO2 and planetary
surface temperature is 0.78. The simple rising
line showing heating for increasing CO2 explains a
lot of the variance in the global mean temperature.
The relationship between CO2 and global temperature
is very strong and the anthropogenic greenhouse gas
radiative forcing theory is well supported by these
data.
The R^2 value for sunspots and and planetary
surface temperature is very near zero. These data
clearly do not support any relationship between
sunspot numbers and global mean surface temperature
over the last 50 years. It is very unlikely that
sunspots have anything to do with the current
global warming.
This test applies very easily to all other claims for
global warming causes. It will quickly separate the
wheat from the chaff.

Isn't it, in fact, true that there is no peer-reviewed evidence that
CO2 has any effect at all on atmospheric temperatures?
Admit it, Roger. Everybody knows its true. Just admit it. You'll
feel better.

If this really was the case you wouldn't have to be assuring us of its
validity you'd just show us the experimental evidence that supports
this conclusion and that would be the end of the argument.
