The site I mentioned above states that contributing factors of Global Warming are: solar radiation, volcanoes, solar wind/cosmic rays, El Nino/Southern Oscillation, and human activity (in that order). The “scientific” “consensus” ignores the contribution of solar wind/cosmic rays, even though it is many times larger than El Nino’s, thereby overestimating the contribution of human activity.

Also, CO2 levels are estimated from measurements in Hawaii, which sits in the middle of the Pacific ocean, a major source of natural CO2 out-gassing.

The “consensus” also ignores absorption of man-made CO2 in polar seawater. There is no known difference between the absorption rates of natural and man-made CO2. Its environmental half-life is 3 – 8 years, so if all man-made CO2 production ceased tomorrow, most of it would be absorbed in a few decades, not the centuries the “consensus” would have you believe.

… a super volcano eruption like Yellowstone National Park could still cause an ice age ….

It wouldn’t take Yellowstone. Several Krakatoas could send us into a little ice age.
