Odds of climate change (for the worse)?

Getting real stupid and making statements you cannot possibly back up

The greenhouse effect is a natural and well-understood phenomenon [snip]

Most of the observed warming is highly likely due to human activity
It is highly likely that those human activities that have increased the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere have been largely responsible for the observed warming since 1950. The warming associated with increases in greenhouse gases originating from human activity is called the enhanced greenhouse effect. The atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide has increased by more than 30% since the start of the industrial age and is higher now than at any time in at least the past 650,000 years. This increase is a direct result of burning fossil fuels, broad-scale deforestation and other human activity. Concentrations of a range of other potent greenhouse gases, such as CFCs<!--[if !supportFootnotes]-->[4]<!--[endif]-->, methane and nitrous oxide, have increased also as a result of human activity, and have contributed to the observed warming. Conversely, some other by-products of human activity, most notably industrial aerosols, have had a cooling effect on the atmosphere, and have offset some of the warming from the enhanced greenhouse effect. - The Australian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society Statement on Climate Change

Canadian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society (CMOS)
"CMOS endorses the process of periodic climate science assessment carried out by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and supports the conclusion, in its Third Assessment Report, which states that the balance of evidence suggests a discernible human influence on global climate." 1

A " discernible" is that the most commitment they were willing to make?
 

A bullshit article in a newspaper? That is not a scientific source. And it makes flatout wrong statements.

2007 A Top Ten Warm Year For U.S. And Globe
ScienceDaily (Dec. 31, 2007) — The year 2007 is on pace to become one of the 10 warmest years for the contiguous U.S., since national records began in 1895, according to preliminary data from NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, N.C. The year was marked by exceptional drought in the U.S. Southeast and the West, which helped fuel another extremely active wildfire season. The year also brought outbreaks of cold air, and killer heat waves and floods. Meanwhile, the global surface temperature for 2007 is expected to be fifth warmest since records began in 1880. Preliminary data will be updated in early January to reflect the final three weeks of December and is not considered final until a full analysis is complete next spring.

News articles get their sources same as you, from sources with the same validity. For every source you pull up supporting your hoax, there are just as many which show it's just a hoax.

You are right. Soft Rocks thinks that his narrow sources are "every". He is a classic koolaid drinker. His sources always have profit to be made from climate change caused by humans.

We know she's a physicist by training and an astronomer by profession, but just who is Australia's new Chief Scientist? Late last year, US-born Professor Penny Sackett was appointed to the top scientific gig, which means she is now responsible for providing independent advice to the Rudd government on a range of scientific and technological issues. It's a tough job at the best of times, but with global warming and emission reduction targets now firmly on the political agenda, just how hard will it be for Professor Sackett to steer clear of the maelstrom which surrounds scientific research? Professor Sackett arrived in Australia in 2002 to take up the role as Director of the Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics at the Australian National University, only to see the Mount Stromlo observatory destroyed in the Canberra bushfires a few months later; however, the setback wasn't enough to dent her interest in astronomy and the pursuit of science.

Here we go ... now this has to be wrong ...
Myths

Yes, it is wrong. The IPCC is far too conservative on sea level rise. We are seeing a faster rise, and more ice melting than the predictions.

Wow ... just wow ... well, observation tends to say otherwise. You really are just trying to blow it out of proportion to create panic ... you don't have to reinforce this fact anymore, we already see it.
