NASA couldn't figure it out, so they blamed CO2? (warning: big brain stuff*)

* something I don't have.

If I get this right, NASA couldn't account for the increase in global temperature, so they fudged an equation, making CO2 look like the culprit.

However, the most CO2 can contribute to any temperature is 5 degrees, and is already baked in to the current temperature (if I understand the article correctly).

Interesting. Makes me wish that my last physics class was more recent than 1975.

Nothing about that article or the page it's hosted on screams "credible" to me.

Computer programmers fooled actual physicists into believing they knew what they were talking about? Really?

Foote's theory was discovered over a hundred years ago, but how does the giant hole in the O-Zone layer factor in?

Yeah, I'm not convinced of the credibly of this article either.  He's claiming that scientists complete forgot or ignored some of the most basic laws of thermodynamics to prop up a straw man.  I'm not aware of any time when CO2 was the sole cause of global climate change, and I'm certainly not aware of any suggestion that heat absorption is consistent and universal.
