Is Anthropogenic Climate Change Still Debated on Science Forums?

AI Thread Summary
Anthropogenic climate change, particularly regarding the C13:C14 and C14:C12 ratios, remains a topic of discussion, with a focus on the quantification of fossil emissions over the last century. The correlation between greenhouse gas measurements and factors such as CO2 release, deforestation, and pollution has reached a significant level of statistical confidence, achieving the "five sigma" mark, which is considered a scientific gold standard, as of 2005. The inquiry into counter-arguments from objective scientists suggests a need for clear definitions of objectivity, especially in the context of climate change discussions. The ease of matching fossil emissions data with NOAA measurements indicates a robust framework for understanding anthropogenic impacts on climate.

I'm wondering if anthropogenic climate change (C13: C14 and C14:C12 ratios) is still contentious on these forums. Counting the amount of fossil emissions in the last 100 years isn't particularly difficult, and matching the curve with NOAA measurements seems trivial, so I'm wondering what kind of counter-argument objective scientists use these days (if any).

Please only post if you have peer-reviewed scientific data to back up your argument. Thanks.

Objectively, you'd have to define "objective" somewhat outside its usual definition : something like standing with eyes clenched shut, fingers in ears, loudly yelling "LALALALALLALA" while somebody's trying to talk to you.

The correlation between GHG measurement and CO2 release / deforestation / pollution hit the "five sigma" mark (scientific gold standard) in 2005.

Thread 'The Secrets of Prof. Verschure's Rosetta Stones'
(Edit: since the thread title was changed, this first sentence is too cryptic: the original title referred to a Tool song....) Besides being a favorite song by a favorite band, the thread title is a straightforward play on words. This summer, as a present to myself for being promoted, I purchased a collection of thin sections that I believe comprise the research materials of Prof. Rob Verschure, who at the time was faculty in the Geological Institute in Amsterdam. What changed this...
