It would appear that nothing is actually settled in the area of climate science. In the article, linked below, scientists have shown that, despite levels of CO2 increasing, the greenhouse effect has actually got weaker in the recent decades, in which case there must be some other explanation for the slight warming that has been recorded. Political leaders cannot work with uncertainty, so they cling to a certainty which simply does not exist in reality. How foolish this will all look when the coming decades prove the whole CO2/warming fad to be based on nothing more than guesswork.

Radiation forcing is observed and calculated. Radiation forcing has a very clear link to increased GHGs.
