De, Thanks also for the MIT article. I started out doing some searching for a simple article estimating how many kcals were stored in all the world's fossil fuels and how many and been recently released. I didn't find anything good to cite, so I just made my bold statement, thinking it was self evident.

Obviously, it wasn't self evident. I'm not sure where I missed the mark. Perhaps I should have just said that ANY man-made release of heat into the environment was, technically, "man-made global warming"? Even if the release causes no discernible change in world temperature, or even if some other mechanism counterbalances it, it still constitutes "man-made global warming".

Re: “You can't burn a billion years worth of stored sunlight (which is what oil and other hydrocarbons are) in 150 years and not dump a monstrously large amount of kcals into the environment. Physics says there is man-made global warming. Anyone who can't understand that is probably mentally impaired.”
I must be mentally impaired - because I sure don't understand what you just said.

Per M.I.T., "A total of 173,000 terawatts (trillions of watts) of solar energy strikes the Earth continuously. That's more than 10,000 times the world's total energy use."

Since your understanding is so much greater than mine, not to mention this M.I.T. author's, please explain why our view - that humans release SOME heat into the atmosphere, but the amount is insignificant next to even the tiniest of changes in solar activity - is wrong. Humanity's energy release is certainly not enough to constitute a problem that we EVER need to worry about.

Now, if you want to argue that the accumulated CO2 emissions are amplifying the effect of solar radiation, then you might be on to something. But your posted argument (and the implied insult to anyone who disagrees) isn't that at all. So, challenge accepted. Why are you right ... and M.I.T. and I wrong?
