Now there are other factors? You've ran a one ring CO2 theory circus for years now there are other potentials? Which one flat lined warming even with higher and higher CO2?
Does this mean the blind bipolar bears will see again?
It's time for the Petros Dance again I see.
Who knows which one flatlined warming. I don't really get the GCMs. I know quite a bit about radiation physics and thermodynamics, so that's why I run the CO2 theory circus.
My suspicion is that the earth is trying to maintain homeostasis--pushing back against the extra heat of anthropogenic CO2, in a manner similar to LeChatelier's Principle. That would explain the flatline in the warming, but some other odd signals, like arctic/antarctic ice, those weird holes i Siberia, etc. Eventually the forcing will overcome the negative feedback and you'll get a sudden bifurcation, adn some sudden warming. That's my suspicion, but like I said, I mostly understand the thermo.
