2 can play at the posting game, also 32,000 is not alot when you think of how many scientists there are in the world, and also how is that evidence against it?

Oh good, you can post links.

1) I've already rebutted this image in this very thread, please see here.

2) Nobody debates the increase in C02, the actual impact of the C02 is what is in question. And in fact there is a great deal of evidence that C02 actually is itself driven by increasing temperature rather than the other way around. Additionally this graph suffers from a lack of scope similar to the problems I discussed about #1. As for the information regarding temperature driving C02 and not the other way this is nothing new and has been taught in climatology classrooms since the 60s, its actually an accepted proven process that the ocean absorbs C02 when temperatures are low and emits it when they are high.

3) Just like Mr Emanuel of MIT has recently rescinded his arguments about the effects of global warming on natural disasters which was based on his climate model so too is this graph based on climate models which ask us to suspend reality and ignore our complete inability to predict next week's weather much less almost 100 years into the future as this graph shows several models have done. In fact such models have a success rate somewhere south of 1% because there are in fact so many of them that one of them will eventually get it right..unfortunately most are getting it wrong right now due to the recent cooling caused by "natural variations" which of course isn't allowed to account for the rise in temperature but rather only the fall.

4) Again I point out nobody questions that the earth warmed during the last 40 to 50 years, the question is whether it was induced by mankind or not. This graph doesn't really challenge anything I've said.
