Other temperature reconstructions based on proxies also show a similar picture so it is global in extent showing temperatures 2 degrees or so warmer (some show more by the way so 2 is conservative).
Sure, Vostok is mentioned here[^]

Strawman. No one is arguing that global cooling would be harmless. Only that warming would be more harmful than current levels.

#4 States the effect of extra CO2 is increaslingly weak. Tries to conter this by saying that the rate at which we are producing CO2 is increasing, thus negating this. This is of course logically eroneous. It just means we will reach the state where adding extra CO2 has almost no effect sooner.
And what point are you trying to make? That it's ok because it's happening faster?

#6 Fails to state that direct evidence of CO2 causing warming has been found. It states it should be found in theory, that lab experiments have fond it, and that outgoing IR at certain frequencies has been affected. SO this totally backs up what I said that no evidence to data has been found that CO2 causes warming. (Because the climate is more complex than we understand and its sugested CO2 causes cooling in the upper atmosphere so the net efect might be zero)
And you determine that net effect by taking empirical measurements and seeing how they correlate to CO2 levels... Which is what was done. Hey, look... They match. What a shocker.

Being skeptical is good. A good scientist should always be skeptical of all viewpoints, his own and those of others. You seem to be equating skepticism with

As I said, 'might'. I am not calculating anything, just following the science bwecause what surprises me is that CO2 is supposed to warm, and we should have seen a fair bit already, but cant identify CO2 based warming distinct from natural variation.

And so I relooked at that web site. It seems to be less accurate than in the past. I dug abit deeper and found that this body is behind that web site: Vision: A peaceful, just and sustainable world community as called for in the UN Charter. Mission: The UU-UNO has a two-fold mission: * We engage in the work of the UN to advance a peaceful, just, sustainable and pluralistic world community that promotes human rights. * We engage and inspire Unitarian Universalists and others to support and participate in this work. Share and Enjoy: [^] So basically a non scientific body whose aim is human rights, peace, and Universalism? Just look at the language used: http://climate.uu-uno.org/topics/view/23695/[^] http://climate.uu-uno.org/topics/view/23695/#Disturbing_Elements[^] This is not mature scientific debate, this is politicised, clearly their use of right wing, surely a term that has no place in science, indicates this? "Bottom Line: Quacks, Tobacco, Right-Wing Think Tanks, and Contrarians" is this any basis from which to discuss whether CO2 wil warm by 1 or 3 degrees? WHether CO2 at 600, or 1000 PPM is beneficial for crop produciton? Before you use the scepticalscicnce.com site again just remember the nature of those behind it.

OK, time for a bit of classic, controlled experiement here. As Dr Phil Jones has stated the pre war and post 70s warming periods are similar in magnitude and extent. So, whats the difference between the two warming periods? Both occur at a similar period in earths history, oceanic currents are the same, the sun is the same, ot hasnt gone supernova or anything, in fact broadly similar conditions. Except for CO2. Pre war there wasnt mch, post 70s there is. And what effect did that CO2 have thats noticably, and measurably different in the latter one? Hmm, well, kinda none in fact. Thats why its hard to detect CO2 based warming Ian. All scientists know this, YES it SHOULD warm, but its damned difficult finding empiricle evidence of it. (Here is an interesting study: http://cdiac.esd.ornl.gov/trends/temp/angell/angell.html[^] "near-surface air temperature warmed by approximately 0.18°C/decade, the 850-300 mb tropospheric layer warmed by about 0.08°C/decade, the 300-100 mb tropopause layer temperature cooled by approximately -0.23°C/decade (driven mainly by large changes in the Polar zones), and the 100-50 mb low-stratospheric layer cooled by about -0.60°C/decade." Now, this study is used by a pro AGW site, but a couple of thigs are of interest. As you know GH gas theory states that the CO2 in the troposphere will trap heat and reradiate it back to the surface. This means the troposphere has to be getting warmer, at least as warm as the surface if not warmer. This report shows it isnt. In fact the surface is twice as warm as the troposphere. This tends to imply the near surface warming measured isnt due to CO2. Secondly, it has found that the upper atmosphere has cooled. Remember what I was saying about the recent NAA research that suggests CO2 has a cooling effect in the upper atmosphere because of its ability to turn kinetic energy into IR radiation? This

Yes, the one-line responses are at the top of each... But those are quick summaries, not the entire rebuttals. First the rebuttals were written, and then that guy came along and said something like "Hey, this would be a lot easier to understand if there were quick summaries," and he contributed them. That has zero effect on the credibility or bias of the actual articles.

So I say its been cooling for 10000 years, you say it hasnt, and then post a link with a graph showing 10000 years of cooling, then refute that cooling by saying the trend has been reversed (a trend fro cooling, thus admitting it has ben cooling) by CO2 (which has only been produced by man in significant quantities form 1870 (source, IPCC) which is a time span considerably shorter than 10000 years. Ian, if you are going to argue, dont argue like a woman. Its only women who say, when refuted, "yeah but two years ago the grass was shorter" or some such utterly spurious statement. And in any cae, it doesnt say "CO2 has reversed the trend" it says " 2. The warming effect from CO2 and other greenhouse gases is greater than the cooling effect expected from natural factors. Without human interference, the Earth’s orbit and tilt, a slight decline in solar output since the 1950s and volcanic activity would have led to global cooling. Yet global temperatures are definitely on the rise. It can therefore be concluded that with CO2 concentrations set to continue to rise, a return to ice age conditions seems very unlikely." As for troposphereic warming, its still a problem for AGW. Because no matter how much they adjust the satellite data its still not warm enough because, and let me say this again, for GH gas warming to be evident the troposphere must warm at least as much as the surface.

Now you're putting words in my mouth. I didn't dispute that it was warmer 10k years ago. I just linked an article showing that the trend has been reversed by CO2.
