There is still no evidence suggesting that the GCR influence our climate in significant ways.Twitter / Revkin: @tan123 @climate_skeptic ...

@tan123@climate_skeptic@climatedepot 10-15% dismissive of#AGW (not to mention#CAGW) actually an overstatement: http://environment.yale.edu/climate/files/fig1-May2011-2.jpg …
