Certainly no-one in working in the area of the cryosphere does. I'm
not the only one waiting to read your explanation with interest.-

Good that you've returned, I respect that (took some doing, but I do
respect it) but no you can't. I've got no idea what you mean by that
answer and "natural cycles" are just a cop-out. What "natural cooling
cycles", or combinations of them are going to lead to summer Arctic
sea ice recovering? Don't dodge by trying to sidetrack. Tell us what
you mean.- Hide quoted text -

The same forces that have always varied our climate long before C02
was seen as an issue.

Those natural forces have been negative (indicating cooling) since mid-20th
Century, while global temperature has increased substantially and Arctic ice
has gone into accelerating decline. See:

How can you reconcile these oppositely-directed trends?
