If you say so.

What is the percentage of naturally occurring GHGs (volcanoes and such), versus those produced by man's activities?Liar (FCT).
AGW states that human activity is the primary cause of global warming. The four points I noted show that warming is taking place, that it is being caused by GHGs and that humans are the source of those GHGs. I didn't miss shit. Every point is falsifiable. They just don't happen to be false. You've got diddly squat on all counts. That's what happens when you take up the wrong side of an argument.

To date this has not happened. Further, humans lack the ability to accurately measure it to the accuracy that is needed in the first place.
The science says both of your claims are wrong. Two separate sensors on the Aqua satellite, AIRS and CERES, do measure it, and they both show OLR decreasing between 2002 to 2011.

Where is the name of one scientist with a link to science. All I see is press releases from leftist websites.
Show us some satellite data that does NOT show the Earth is still accumulating heat energy.
I believe the average from 2002-2011 was 1.1 Wm^-2.
Then go find it yourself.
The precision achieved by the most advanced generation of radiation budget satellites is indicated by the planetary energy imbalance measured by the ongoing CERES (Clouds and the EarthÂ’s Radiant Energy System) instrument (Loeb et al., 2009), which finds a measured 5-year-mean imbalance of 6.5 W/m2 (Loeb et al., 2009). Because this result is implausible, instrumentation calibration factors were introduced to reduce the imbalance to the imbalance suggested by climate models, 0.85 W/m2 (Loeb et al., 2009).

Happy now?
I'm quite certain that the Earth is still getting warmer. I'm also quite certain that you could care less what the preponderance of the evidence shows. Despite your attempts to pretend to be sincerely skeptical, the application of your skepticism is utterly biased. You made your mind up long ago but would rather folks didn't know.
If you're a true skeptic, Ian, why are your disagreement almost ENTIRELY with those of us who accept mainstream science? A true skeptic should be arguing with damn near everyone. How is it that you display so very, very little skepticism toward the expressed opinions of the deniers here? THEY certainly think you're on their side.
