A Princeton study confirms the growing energy imbalance of the earth is due to humans, and not natural processes. By 'imbalance' we mean there is no longer an equilibrium between the energy entering the earth's atmosphere and the energy that is re-radiated back into space. The warming of the earth is the result of the imbalance - caused primarily by greenhouse gases trapping more of the energy that should be making it back into space.
Satellite data over two decades, then fed into numerous independent computer models for climate, all confirm there is no set of natural processes that have occurred over this time period to account for the warming. Only by adding in human contributions does one even approach the observed imbalance. This is but one more of many studies that all reach this conclusion that global warming and the climate change that results is due to humans, as it has a less than 1% uncertainty in these results.
