It seems very simple to me. Human activity has increased the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by about fifty percent. Therefore it is trapping more heat. Therefore the planet has warmed.

And you are just claiming other "stuff"...
Sorry, I have better things to do than continue this discussion.
(Undoubtedly some clown with accuse me of "flouncing off" simply for saying that)

That's a bit disappointing. I thought we were having a good and sensible discussion about the science.

The bit you are ignoring, as are others, is the RATE of change

Nope. Removing the protestor is not the same as a protest.

We know which molecules cause the greenhouse effect, and how.
Greenhouses gases are building up far faster than they have before
We know of no natural process which could cause them to build up at the rate they have.
We do know that burning fossil fuels and other anthropogenic sources are enough to make them build up the way they have.
Analysis of the upper atmosphere gases proves GHGs are significantly from those human activities.
Now stop being silly.

Many climate change scientists do not agree that global warming is happening
That seems to be a letter from a random GP, more than twenty five years ago! Things have moved on quite a bit. Very few scientists still try to deny that warming is happening. Now it's more about trying to think of reasons not to deal with it. I've heard it called climate change deflection, rather than outright climate change denial.
What I always encourage those who still deny the earth is warming to do, is to think about the basics afresh.
Do they agree that the "greenhouse" effect exists, and that without it the earth would be a ball of ice.
Do they agree that carbon dioxide is one of the gases which causes the greenhouse effect.
Do they agree that increasing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by fifty percent will increase the greenhouse effect.

I think in 1998 (where your link is from) there was some valid question as to how the massive increase in CO2 would effect usMany climate change scientists do not agree that global warming is happening
but 26 years on, there is no question about it, the climate is going to change dramatically, far fast than we can cope with, and it is going to be disastrous.

1998 . You like making it clear you're a jerk, don't you?Many climate change scientists do not agree that global warming is happening
what bit are you struggling with that despite governments /scientists etc back then were claiming global warming actual climatologists said it was based highly uncertain scientific theories .
