The subject of this thread doesn't take into account that nothing in the world can or will do anything about global warming/climate change as long as Old Sol is in our solar system.
That is completely incorrect. Increased radiant heating dwarfs changes in solar insolation.
Come on Crick, where is the missing "hot spot"?
My POST 42, you ignored
When will you fucks catch up? The tropospheric hot spot is not linked with greenhouse warming but with ANY warming.
Understanding the significance of the tropospheric hot spot
And read the first comment when you are done with the article.
You are truly stupid since the IPCC make it abundantly clear they are projecting the CO2 as the dominant cause of the Tropospheric "hot spot" as shown in their
IPPC 2007 report chapter 9:
9.2.2 Spatial and Temporal Patterns of the Response to Different Forcings and their Uncertainties
Figure 9.1. Zonal mean atmospheric temperature change from 1890 to 1999 (°C per century) as simulated by the PCM model from (a) solar forcing, (b) volcanoes, (c) well-mixed greenhouse gases, (d) tropospheric and stratospheric ozone changes, (e) direct sulphate aerosol forcing and (f) the sum of all forcings. Plot is from 1,000 hPa to 10 hPa (shown on left scale) and from 0 km to 30 km (shown on right). See
Appendix 9.C for additional information. Based on Santer et al. (2003a).
YOUR link left out a critical section from the IPCC report, which they completely IGNORED!

They also ignored this from the IPCC report:
"Greenhouse gas forcing is expected to produce warming in the troposphere, cooling in the stratosphere, and, for transient simulations, somewhat more warming near the surface in the NH due to its larger land fraction, which has a shorter surface response time to the warming than do ocean regions (Figure 9.1c)."
