I am not good at math. A calculator in my hand is a deadly weapon. So somebody please explain to me how someone can be responsible for more than 100% of something.

” . . . explain to me how someone can be responsible for more than 100% of something.”

We’re responsible for 100% of the global warming that hasn’t happened, and we’re also responsible for 23% more that hasn’t happened but might have happened if the original 100% hadn’t happened.

it is 123% certain that our 0.00136% CO2 is causing massive global warming-

this is akin to saying that placing an average sized lit candle in an indoor football stadium is causing massive climate change-

Or, it’;s like claiming that dumping 4 5 gallon pails of 100 degree water into an olympic sized pool of 90 degree water will cause catastrophic pool warming (4 five gallon pails = roughly 0.00135% of the contents of the pool)

Because the math doesn’t support the wild claims- they have to pad their results to make it seem more dangerous- hence the 123% figure- sounds scary and finite huh?

It's easy, humans are responsible for 123% of warming, but not responsible for 123% of cooling. Net increase is zero. But humans are still bad.

Seems to me they would have to have some evidence that the earth would be otherwise cooling down if it were not for mankind causing the warming to claim such a thing.

It’s the AGW equivalent mentality (and IQ) of “up to eleven”. /”This Is Spinal Tap.”
