I believe he has extensive understanding of it, but I'm confused by his rhetoric because his focus upon "consensus" as to cause.
If he's focusing upon his trade journals, then there may be a quasi-consensus among the vocal minority. If that is the "feeling" he's trying to convey, then I understand.
However, if one surveys as a layperson, ignorant of the actual science, but capable of reading what trends the literature suggest, other than an acknowledgment that climactic change is occurring, man's contributions seem indeterminable. And Seattle's insert appears to me to be the reality of the science. It's politics, not science to promote an agenda that may result in some good, but at what cost?
