>>1377408Those were pretty darn good questions. Good job. I can admit that I don't have all the answers, but I'll try to answer your questions to the best of my knowledge. You also have to note that I'm a random internet guy without professional climatology background so I'm not fully equipped to explain these things, but I suppose you know this already.
>Are you saying anthropogenic CO2/ activity is a primary factor in climate change? Can I get a source for the effect size compared to other influences and their variability on our climate?I did say that it is one prime factor. The other, perhaps even bigger cause, is methane (not %-wise, but in its effects). I don't know how much you have faith in EPA, but see the pic. I would've posted the one I trust more, but I reckon you don't do Finnish, so I picked the EPA pie chart (taken from: <

Of course gases in the atmosphere aren't the only thing contributing to climate change. Long-term causes for climate change include: a) changes in the Earth's orbit around the sun b) continental drifts c) volcanic activities and d) meteorites. The key word on these causes is ''long-term''.
>What climate models are you referring to when you make those assertions? Is our climate system self regulatory or a positive feedback system? How is the change in temperature distributed in these climate models?Here, I have to admit my ignorance. I really don't understand how global warming affects the planetarial wind- and air pressure zones or the sea currencies. It's a complicated system and what makes matters even worse explanation-wise is that I can't even fucking translate these things into English properly. All I can do is regurgitate what the scientists have said would be...
