TO SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL -- PLEASE SUPPORT THIS CHARITY:
I do not ask for contributions. Instead, please support the work of Health in Harmony, which trades forest protections for health care. See my video here: [ Ссылка ] for an explanation of their work.

Health in Harmony also has a live website: [ Ссылка ]

CORRECTIONS:
1) At around 15:00 I give the atmospheric content of CO2 as 32 billion. This is actually our annual contribution. The total is much higher, around 3,290 billion tonnes -- i.e. 3.3 trillion tonnes.

2) At 23:00 I say the rise in CO2 is shown in red. I should have said 'shown in blue.' Temperatures are shown red, CO2 blue.

3) The link between CO₂ and global temperature was first published in 1856 by Eunice Newton Foote, not Arrhenius. Arrhenius quantified it.

4) Spencer doesn't give a time period for the ‘natural air conditioning system’ he ‘feels' (yes, he does use the word 'feel') it will kick in some time and cool things down again. So I was wrong to say 'soon.'

5) Ljunqvist’s reconstruction was for NH temperatures, so I should not have added in _global_ temperatures and compared them to the medieval Warm Period. It's a shame I didn't spot this mistake sooner (my thanks to bacchusevokution for pointing it out), because the NH temperatures are higher still.

CO2 driving warming at the end of the last glaciation:
'Timing of Atmospheric CO2 and Antarctic temperature changes across Termination III' - Caillon et al, 2003
'CO2 climate relationship as deduced from the Vostok ice core' - Barnola et al, 1990
A poster pointed out that a paper 'Earth’s radiative imbalance from the Last Glacial Maximum to the present' by Baggenstos et al (2019) does quantify the contributions of various forcings, and that the loss of albedo (reflectiveness from ice) is a greater contributor to deglaciation than CO2. It could be argued that since the rise in CO2 and greater insolation triggered the melting of ice in the northern hemisphere (where most albedo was lost), CO2 can still be regarded as the main cause. Tricky one that!
On one hand, if someone argues that this still makes CO2 the cause, then it remains the primary driver even during ice ages, which constitute just 1% of the Phanerozoic (there's no doubt it's the primary driver for the other 99%.) If, however, one argues that albedo is the main driver, then the fact that the current rise in CO2 is causing a huge loss in albedo should be a major concern.

Lindzen's failed prediction:

Please note: Lindzen didn't draw this graph himself, it comes from Skeptical Science based on Lindzen's 'Earth Iris' hypothesis. The text alongside the reconstruction reads: "I want to be explicit that these projections are my interpretation of Lindzen's comments, not Lindzen's own projections."
