Tom Nelson conflates attribution of climate impacts to human cause with projections of future impacts. http://j.mp/ExtrmClim (What a guy ;-)
[Hey Andy: Go back and read your own 2008 article again]: Federal Report: Warming = More Harmful Climate Extremes - Dot Earth Blog - NYTimes.com
[Note that Andy strongly suggested here that the alleged future climate impacts could be attributed to human cause.  Andy, if you deny that point, why did you even mention the idea of cutting "the odds of the worst outcomes" by tweaking atmospheric CO2?]. These strong conclusions have a lot of scientists and policy experts pushing for prompt action, after decades of waffling, both to cut the odds of the worst outcomes by curbing greenhouse gas emissions and by boosting resilience to climate extremes — whatever the cause.
