Uh...guys...the point of the post that started this thread is the fact that the IPCC itself ... or at least the group that wrote Chapter 9 of its latest Physical Science Basis report...concedes that unequivocal declaration of a cause and effect relationship between human activity and observed changes in the climate would require controlled experiments that are not possible.
I'm not sure why you have to make things up out of whole cloth to support your argument.
The IPCC, the US National Academy of Sciences, and NASA have never, not once, claimed that it's unequivocable that human activities are warming the earth.
Science is virtually never able to prove anything with 100% certainty beyond a shadow of a doubt. 400 years after Isacc Newton scientists, are still debating the causes and origin of gravity. Science deals in probabilities, not absolute 100% truths.
IPCC and every other major international and national scientific organization on the planet have conclude that global warming is happening, and its highly likely that the major cause of it is human pollution.
If you're waiting for 100%, bullet proof, beyond a shadow of a doubt conclusions you either don't understand science, or your asking us to wait for 400 years until science in 99.99% certain.
