Thanks for offering repeatedly debunked claims here. It helps if your
data is up-to-date. The physicist who resigned the APS should have
boned up on his atmospheric physics before resigning. The physics
underpinning anthropogenic climate change is nearly 200 years old -- and
it is as well proven as the fact that gravity will pull you toward the
ground surface if you walk off the roof of a five-story building.
That physics works quite well if anyone bothered to look at atmospheres
of other planets, and if anyone tried to figure out what Earth's
temperature would be without the natural greenhouse effect. Only a fool
would expect greenhouse warming to suddenly stop working because we're
changing chemical concentrations in the atmosphere.

The public is used to hearing rather wildly conflicting information
about climate change from the scientific community. In
1974 some claimed that global cooling was a looming
problem:

More recently there have been accusations of fraud:

"For reasons that will soon become clear my former pride at
being an APS Fellow [American Physical Society] all these years
has been turned into shame, and I am forced, with no pleasure
at all, to offer you my resignation from the Society. It is of course,
the global warming scam, with the (literally) trillions of dollars
driving it, that has corrupted so many scientists, and has
carried APS before it like a rogue wave. It is the greatest
and most successful pseudoscientific fraud I have seen in my
long life as a physicist. Anyone who has the faintest doubt
that this is so should force himself to read the ClimateGate
documents, which lay it bare."
