An editor or editors, possibly scibaby-related, have repeatedly inserted the following text:
The reference given for this is http://www.giss.nasa.gov/research/news/20011210/
The reason for the insertion seems, from the last edit summary ("restore key quote vs. CO2-centric IPCC"), to be based on a belief about the content of IPCC AR4 held by that editor or editors. This source which quotes the IPCC AR4's Summary for Policymakers in detail shows that this is a misconception. In particular, the growth in atmospheric methane due to agriculture and other human activities is mentioned as a significant probable factor in global warming, and the quote by Schmidt in the cited source concerns the possible relation between methane release and a period of global warming known as the Late Paleocene Thermal Maximum. Climatologists are particularly concerned about the possibility of global warming triggering the release of ocean-floor methane deposits. Since methane is a far more efficient greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide, there is considerable concern about the possibility of catastrophic global warming in such a scenario. -- TS 02:08, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
Is there a source for this statement:
In November 2004 he was named as one of Scientific American's "Top 50 Research Leaders" for the year.
Plenty of other sources need cites too. Alex Harvey ( talk) 14:37, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
