hottest year in USA was 2012

Can you cite an open peer reviewed study that disproves my claim? 2013 is expected to be very hot globally because of the combined known natural cycles.

Can you show me anything that shows Black Carbon over the Arctic Ice as insignificant? Have any idea how much Asia dumps in the air, that ends up over the northern ice?

Can you show me conclusive studies that show Heat islands as insignificant, or not messing with the temperature readings?

Stop pushing your CO2 agenda. Yes, there is anthropogenic warming. However, CO2 is not properly shown to have significance.

Oh... Don't forget... CO2 levels change with temperature...

See: special pleading.

What if it's just a natural process and there's really nothing to worry about? I mean what would be so bad with that possibility? Why all the gloom and doom?

You do realize that this planet is inhabitable by us because it meets a very strict set of criteria and that those can easily go away and the planet becomes uninhabitable, right? Don't think in terms of .4 degrees warmer at your home. Think of no glaciers, no rainforests, inability to grow many crops, incredibly severe storms that produce natural disasters, draining the economy to keep certain regions inhabitable.
