"I think you have to bear in mind that the CO2 is a good 50 to 60 percent higher than normal, whereas the decline in solar output is a few hundredths of one percent down," Lockwood said. "I think that helps keep it in perspective."

Boy, are these idiots going to be embarrassed.

These idiots don’t realize how stupid their comments on CO2 vs. solar quietness are.CO2 levels have been significantly higher in past ages, during or before ice ages. And CO2 is a minor greenhouse gas at 350ppm. Thus, even a large increase in CO2 will have little effect. On the other hand, the sun is 100 % of the cause of a warm earth. Without it the temperature of the earth would be almost absolute zero. Thus, a small change in solar illumination (and sun spots) can have dramatic effects (as measured in a few degrees change) on the global temperature.

These “scientists” must not be very scientific.

They will NOT be embarrassed if they get their legislation passed and government controls in place before the wheels come completely off the GW bus. Once in place with their attendant massive bureaucracies they cannot be eliminated. Once in place the trumpeted reasons for their enactment are no longer relevant to anything. once the chains are on your body it dose not matter how they got there.
