Let the finger pointing and abusive language continue between this whole lot. Let them take each other apart. Saves us the trouble of doing it over a long protracted time frame.
What it might take for the major news networks to finally accept the ramifications of them staying silent is yet to be determined. Let their viewer and readership continue to drop to zip. Maybe they will wake up. But I will not hold my breath.

"Once the facts of climate change have been established and understood, attribution will become self-evident to all."

Like I said, I don't worry much about what's in the IPCC reports except for WG1. But I sure do agree with the statement from Dr. Lacis above. The problem is, establishing the facts beyond dispute could take another decade or more, and then response and mitigation will be much more difficult and expensive.

But that trajectory is well beyond my ability to change.
