My Further Response To Real Climate’s Gavin Schmidt and Eric Steig « Climate Science: Roger Pielke Sr.

I continue to be amazed at how Gavin Schmidt and Eric Steig are so convinced of their viewpoints, that they fail to see that their autocratic tenor and tone is turning off many of their colleagues. In my engagement with them at Real Climate, apparently, I never learn either (see). :-)
...
It appears that Eric, although he apparently does not want to admit it (perhaps even to himself), provides evidence to reject Hypothesis 2b. If in parts of the climate system, non-CO2 human climate forcings are more important than CO2 radiative forcing, than Hypothesis 2b must be rejected.

Shining More Light on the Solar Factor by Joseph D’Aleo, CCM | Climate Realists

The authors of a newly published paper on the role of the sun’s variability on global temperatures overstate their case that there has been no impact of solar variations on the earth’s temperature history during the past several decades. Antithetically, changes to the sun are generally known to influence the earth’s climate on all time scales, from eons to hours. However, the difficulty comes in trying to fully measure the magnitude of the sun’s variability and then to understand how such changes result in changes to the earth’s climate.
