So -- as far as can tell. Trakar answers the question of how CO2 drives climatic temperature by throwing up PROJECTIONS of CO2 for the next 2 centuries and a short history of an ice-bound Carbon cycle back to 800,000 yrs.
Interestingly, those relatively tiny 100 ppm swings on that fantasy graph, which don't tell much about TODAY'S carbon cycle were accompanied by temp swings of 4 to 10 degC, while the MEASURED "man-caused" doubling has shown HOW MUCH? Don't DOUBT the proxies.. AGW rule #1. (Rule #2 has something to do with "adjusting" the proxies to fit the script).
Even the AGW folks admit that CO2 forcing as it's documented cannot be the super -extinction forcing event unless the various FEEDBACKS are included. (That is even discussed in the old 1981 Hansen paper that Trakar trotted out with the fantasy graph). Except that the AGW shamans in 1981 couldn't decide whether the ice would build or melt entirely.
Trakar seems to want to make the blanket assertion that it's all as simple as 2 single numbers. The "mean annual surface temperature" (Whatever TF that is) and the atmos concentration of CO2.
Funny how we have to use ONE SINGLE GLOBAL ANNUAL temperature for the AGW argument, but at the same time whine about the MWP not being a "global" event. Lots of interesting footwork afoot eh?
