Some people have this weird idea that anthropogenic global warming is just a bunch of data simulation that will crumble like a house of cards if only we could find the right reason for why the temperatures are changing...
Every steps of how mankind's activity leads to increased CO2 level to increased infrared absorption to increased temperature is very well understood. If for some reason science discovers yet another source of global warming, that won't be what you fancy it would be. It won't disprove AGW or absolve us of our responsibility. Instead, it will be an "Oh shit, we are truly fucked" moment.
I have a hard time understanding why some people are attracted so much to this possibility.
...Heh, who am I kidding. I know perfectly well why.
