Clear evidence and uncertainty
Concentrations of carbon dioxide, the document notes, increased by 40 percent between 1880 and 2012 and are now higher than at any time in at least 800,000 years. As a result, global temperatures are 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than in 1900, Arctic sea ice is shrinking, sea levels are 8 inches higher, ocean acidity is on the rise, and the geographical ranges of many plants and animals are shifting.
"The evidence is clear," reads the report.

It's comments like the above that kill any semblance of credibility for me. Scientists in 1800 were still trying to figure out if the earth was flat or not... They were certainly not measuring the effects of carbon dioxide on the atmosphere.
