Yes, Bruce, it’s called a straw man.

You are bringing up one point that is irrelevant to the other to try to act as if the second is not valid.

If you’re interested, here’s a piece by a physical chemist on the issue: http://thinkprogress.org/romm/2010/12/31/207268/the-physical-chemistry-of-carbon-dioxide-absorption/

And here’s an actual climate scientists talking about the matter: http://planetsave.com/2011/12/19/radiative-properties-of-greenhouse-gases-video/

Bruce, you turned the world of physics on it’s head! You proved something known for over a century wrong! Quick, go and publish your research in a scientific journal and claim your prize!

Oh,.. nvm.

look into it, 97% of climate scientists conclude humans are causing global warming based on the obvious evidence, as well as these scientific bodies:

Scientific organizations endorsing the consensus
The following scientific organizations endorse the consensus position that “most of the global warming in recent decades can be attributed to human activities”:
American Association for the Advancement of ScienceAmerican Astronomical SocietyAmerican Chemical SocietyAmerican Geophysical UnionAmerican Institute of PhysicsAmerican Meteorological SocietyAmerican Physical SocietyAustralian Coral Reef SocietyAustralian Meteorological and Oceanographic SocietyAustralian Bureau of Meteorology and the CSIROBritish Antarctic SurveyCanadian Foundation for Climate and Atmospheric SciencesCanadian Meteorological and Oceanographic SocietyEnvironmental Protection AgencyEuropean Federation of GeologistsEuropean Geosciences UnionEuropean Physical SocietyFederation of American ScientistsFederation of Australian Scientific and Technological SocietiesGeological Society of AmericaGeological Society of AustraliaInternational Union for Quaternary Research (INQUA)International Union of Geodesy and GeophysicsNational Center for Atmospheric ResearchNational Oceanic and Atmospheric AdministrationRoyal Meteorological SocietyRoyal Society of the UK
The Academies of Science from 19 different countries all endorse the consensus. 11 countries have signed a joint statement endorsing the consensus position:
Academia Brasiliera de Ciencias (Brazil)Royal Society of CanadaChinese Academy of SciencesAcademie des Sciences (France)Deutsche Akademie der Naturforscher Leopoldina (Germany)Indian National Science AcademyAccademia dei Lincei (Italy)Science Council of JapanRussian Academy of SciencesRoyal Society (United Kingdom)National Academy of Sciences (USA) (12 Mar 2009 news release)
A letter from 18 scientific organizations to US Congress states:
“Observations throughout the world make it clear that climate change is occurring, and rigorous scientific research demonstrates that the greenhouse gases emitted by human activities are the primary driver. These conclusions are based on multiple independent lines of evidence, and contrary assertions are inconsistent with an objective assessment of the vast body of peer-reviewed science.”
The consensus is also endorsed by a Joint statement by the Network of African Science Academies (NASAC), including the following bodies:
African Academy of SciencesCameroon Academy of SciencesGhana Academy of Arts and SciencesKenya National Academy of SciencesMadagascar’s National Academy of Arts, Letters and SciencesNigerian Academy of Sciencesl’Académie des Sciences et Techniques du SénégalUganda National Academy of SciencesAcademy of Science of South AfricaTanzania Academy of SciencesZimbabwe Academy of SciencesZambia Academy of SciencesSudan Academy of Sciences
Two other Academies of Sciences that endorse the consensus:
Royal Society of New ZealandPolish Academy of Sciences

there are about a dozen lines of evidence, PLENTY of empirical evidence, saying you are wrong: http://planetsave.com/2011/10/28/yes-global-warming-is-real-and-caused-by-humans/

I’m sorry, but what kind of research were you doing? If you’re doing research and you’re getting your info from blogs, you are WAY lost.

97% of climate scientists conclude that humans are causing global warming. nearly every overarching scientific body in the world agrees:

Gravity no longer exists, eh? Just a theory

i think since you posted this it has been established that the % is about 97% — debunkings of the remaining 3% are all over this site:
