I already posted this ink, but I wanted to repost it and make a couple of comments. This piece gives an accurate description of the so called "deniers" -- at least those deniers worth listening to.
My opinions are slightly stronger than the writer's characterizations in points 1 and point 5.
Under 1, I think the surface temperature record is so damaged that we really don't know how much the world has warmed in the last 200 years, or even if it has at all. I still think it's warmer worldwide than it was during the little ice age, but I don't think we actually proved it.
Under 5, I think the details of the hydrodynamic equations governing the atmosphere + ocean system are still so poorly known and understood that no current climate model can be said to have "proved" anything.
