I think the ways I previously mentioned are more rational and "more accurate way[s] to look at it compared to" the 5 year averaging you have repeatedly advocated.
What you "think" and what statistical analysis has shown to be true are 2 completely separate things. I'll stick with science. You are free to stick with what you "think" ...
What is it exactly that you think statistical analysis has
shown to be true about whether or not humans have contributed more than a trivial amount to global warming?
All I've seen that statistical analysis has shown is that the CO2 (et al) content of the atmosphere has been increasing rapidly and relatively smoothly for about a 100 years, while global temperature has been increasing until recently at a slower rate with eratic increases and decreases for about 100 years.
Recognizing that "correlation is not cause", what is the correlation between global temperatures and the amount of CO2 (et al) in the atmosphere?
Please note, the
percentage increase in average global temperature from 1911 to 1998, as measured on the Kelvin temperature scale, is:
100% x (288.706-287.579) / ((288.706+287.579)/2) = 1.127 / 288.1425 = 0.391%.
Also there has been a 0.143K
temperature decrease from 1998 to 2007.

until we die 'cause CO2 would increase and O2 would decrease.
