NASA Admits Solar Activity Causes Global Warming 

“NASA spokeswoman Beth Dickey confirmed with SPACE.com earlier today that the reason [satellite] UARS is expected to fall early in its re-entry window is because of the sharp uptick in solar activity. Solar effects from the sun can create an extra drag on satellites in space because they can heat the Earth’s atmosphere…” 
Oops. I don’t know if this little Dickey is going to have a job tomorrow.

Pastorius,

No one that I know of, has ever said that the sun does not have an effect on climate. No one has ever said to my knowledge that greenhouse gases are the only things that effect the Earth's temperature. So I fail to see how this debunks what you refer to as "anthropocentric global warming"

Pastorius said...

You mean anthropogenic global warming.

Pastorius,

Oh, sorry about that, I used the wrong word.

Does this mean I can go back to burning tires in my yard next to my rusting junks?
