Happy to.

Well let's be accurate then.
"that an apparent warming rate equivalent to almost 0.9 Cº is statistically insignificant"
Statistically insignificant is not the same as "it hasn't warmed".
From a link that support your argument:

I think that is true but we clearly don't understand many areas not in our model at the time including the seas impact on being a carbon sink. So there is a period potentially were sinks are absorbing carbon (not just CO2) and when they are full... then what.
All that is clear the previous model were wrong.

That is just bollocks. There are too many issues and risks to list.... here is just one. (Monday 31 March 2014 01)
Climate change will damage Australia's coastal infrastructure
...
This scenario is leading to increasing risks for “coastal infrastructure and low-lying ecosystems” in Australia, threatening “widespread damage towards the upper end of projected sea-level-rise ranges.”
As oceans warm and the water acidifies, the Great Barrier Reef, like many reefs around the world, is set to decline, according to the IPCC. The vast reef, which may be declared ‘in danger’ by the World Heritage Committee when it meets in June, is “highly vulnerable” to warming and acidification, the report found.
“The Great Barrier Reef is expected to degrade under all climate change scenarios, reducing its attractiveness,” the report states. “Evidence of the ability of corals to adapt to rising temperatures and acidification is limited and appears insufficient to offset the detrimental effects of warming and acidification.”

Actually I am. I started this debate with you a couple of years ago.... not believing there was insignificant warming over the last 17 years. You have forced me to research my old position and really look hard into the information available and the science. I have concluded that some scientists were not balanced in the forecasts earlier influenced by political and greenies. They should be shot.
However the good thing is this was a wakeup call and the new forecast have significant scrutiny and review, probably more than any other research before publications and the forecast without action is a warming planet primarily due to human activity. that is the fact.
It will have major impacts on the world economies and the stability in the world as we fight over food and water and field resources.
IQS.RLOW wrote:In fact the minor warming that may take place will be more beneficial than detrimental.
Bollocks. It may be beneficial to some local environments but as a whole it will not.
Do you have anything to substantiate this claim?

We will continue to use coal. No doubt. It is a very easy energy store to release.
We should use it more cleanly.
We should continue to invest in alternates.
