No. Anthony Watts lays it out here and the original NASA press release is below it. Yes there is a difference between upper & lower atmosphere dynamics, but labeling CO2 as alarmists do is egregiously-wrong: Without CO2, much of the Earth would be a snowball with a narrow equatorial band exclusively supporting a mostly ice-free summer/spring ecosystem. This study essentially undermines all “global warming” research which claims that higher CO2 will cause runaway warming. Hogwash.

I never believed in the integrity of the ice core air sample data interpretation to begin with.

I think you and I are in agreement, except you explained it better than I did.

More importantly, without CO2, there would be no life on earth. And in that case, the temperature and geology would be utterly irrelevant.
