No it doesn't...it concludes the model simulations have inaccuracy in overestimating external forcing. External forcing are climate forcing agents outside of Earth. Source
Some external influences, such as changes in solar radiation and volcanism, occur naturally and contribute to the total natural variability of the climate system. Other external changes, such as the change in composition of the atmosphere that began with the industrial revolution, are the result of human activity.
Yes, burning fossil fuels increases the amount of Co2 in the environment. But the question is if this is causing the average temp to rise by 2 degrees. Even the wildest studies are only showing a 2 degree raise in temp. These proposed studies claimed we should be experiencing like a 12 degree increase. Watch Al Gore's movie again. None of that # is happening. That is why this climate study is not accurate.

The proof is there. A plethora of evidence supports the reality of our burning fossil fuels is causing a sharp rise in CO2 levels.
There is no evidence I have seen that supports your alternative theory. All I see is you using mental gymnastics to support your agenda of denying valid science.

First off. Co2 does have a great effect on greenhouse processes, however, the original studies (the same info referenced in Al gore's movie 1000 years ago) failed to add the additional variables that the earth has to deal with high Co2. Remember the dinosaurs? They lived in a very high Co2 environment for 100's of millions of years. Spokler!! The earth never died that whole time.

I'm not a big believer in the CO2 being such a big factor. I think that chemistry and over harvesting of forests that damages our ecosystems ability to repair itself is just as important. They have made this into a money laundering scam where money flows to scientists that back the scam. Yes, we need to cut emmissions. But we should not be giving rich people money to tell us this, there are a lot of people getting rich off of this climate change BS.
We are messing things up, climate change is real, the organizations are mostly scams though, they are more interested in helping their economies than our environment.
Waiting for An Inconvenient Sequel to be released. I heard they had to redo the ending after Trump got rid of the Paris Agreement. I am not making that up. Release date is Aug 4th.
Watch Al Gore's movie again. None of that # is happening.

It seems you are the one who is constantly trying to cast doubt on the valid science on human induced climate change.
The reality is we are flooding the atmosphere with CO2 as a direct result of our fossil fuel addiction. This will have consequences.
Here is a good read on the stages of denial in terms of climate change:

Also worth mentioning is a book called Merchants of Doubt

You believe scientist are getting rich off climate change?
The only ones who get rich off this subject are the ones who are shills for the oil/coal industry like Richard Lindzen.

Your viewpoint is completely backwards.
A good trick of disinfo is to accuse the 'otherside' that of which you are guilty of.
I subscribe to niether the left or the right. I am scientifically literate though and i understood this way back when Al Gore was doing movies on a scissorlift. The science was fudged. The formula they used was lacking a lot of variables. Read the article again. It does a fine job of articulating the mistakes in the original studies. If those studies were anywher near correct, we would all be dead right now. All you need to do is read the studies and do a little math and you will see that.

Science is not a liberal leftish conspiracy.
I see many of you self described 'right conservatives' do not like the valid science so you all make up an 'alternative' view point that strokes your confirmation bias.

Scientists can get paid great for working for the industry, and get paid peanuts for doing actual climate research and data collection.
To suggest they come up with information that confirms human induced climate change for job security is a bit ridiculous.
Gullible people may believe that, free thinkers will not fall for that sort of mental gymnastics one must pull to believe that crap.

Nobody suggested that the same crooked energy sector would somehow change the rules once renewables are involved. They don't ride on unicorns (yet) either.
It's a corporate sellout, let's face it! And the whole POWERLINE piece adds to your point, perfect example for unholy spinnings for the sake of profitlines. Anyone followed the money trails? Big Oil, Gas and Coal or Big Wind and Solar? Dumb question, I know.. but still. Kinda explains the angry response from the drifter, ya know.
