Well you are just being a provocative arsehole, I am a lukewarmer. I believe that the most likely value for ECS is around 0.5-1.5c and somewhere between RCP2.6 and RCP4.5 is the most likely representative concentration pathway. I also fervently hope that when Trump is re-elected he revives the Presidential Committee on Climate Security chaired by Will Happer.
If you really want to know what is going then I recommend that you read this excellent lecture by Prof. Richard Lindzen, it truly sums up the whole situation admirably.
I especially like his description of the popular narrative we hear from the media and politicians incessantly:
I would ask you to read the entire lecture, I believe it supports his concluding summary of the situation:Now here is the currently popular narrative concerning this system. The climate, a complex multi-factor system, can be summarised in just one variable, the globally averaged temperature change, and is primarily controlled by the 1-2% perturbation in the energy budget due to a single variable – carbon dioxide – among many variables of comparable importance.
This is an extraordinary pair of claims based on reasoning that borders on magical thinking. It is, however, the narrative that has been widely accepted, even among many sceptics.
He then goes on to describe how he believes the popular narrative originated and debunks the tenuous evidence we are constantly reminded supports the catastrophic narrative.

Now Havana Moon might be right. It is unlikely, but possible.
Truth Detector and Into the Night are beyond hope. There is no chance they are right. Truth Detector thinks all scientists are wrong about carbon dioxide being a greenhouse gas, and Into the Night thinks that insulation is impossible. They obviously have little education, so think they can outsmart all scientists.
I think it very likely to be honest, maybe if you read this recent Nature paper you might well agree with me?

We must organize all of humanity toward the challenge which faces us.
We cannot abide leaders who refuse to recognize the problem.

We'd have to get rid of the GOP and half of the Democrats. No small task.
Wow, are you sure she's only seventeen?
