You said
"What utter rubbish."
Yes. What about a positive number, even a cherry picked 0.04 don't you get?

Wait 500 years..or at least well past an election cycle....you get 2 degrees...wait 5,000..or roughly recorded human history... and you get 20 degrees.... I would think a run of 70C degree days would kill most flora/fauna. Let it run a little longer and we can make a cup of tea....just leave the kettle outside for a bit.

The executive summary, which I've quoted directly, twice now, includes sources other than Hadley, and indicates a much higher figure.

Again, the 15 years Hadley data is positive. The Stefan-Boltzmann law is not a homily or fantasy.

So the IPCC executive statement is wrong? I think not.

Critical thought. Give it a try.
