it is becoming increasingly apparent that the growing frequency and intensity of windstorms, floods, hurricanes and extremes of heat and cold is a consequence of higher levels of weather-system volatility related to a warming trend caused in part by human-generated carbon emissions

I love how opinions are now scientific facts...!

Let us assume, for purposes of discussion, that the first bolded section is indeed "a fact."

If it is, then the second bolded section is also probably a fact. But doesn't it make a rather dramatically critical difference whether the "in part" refers to 1% responsibility or 99%?

It is highly unlikely man has had NO impact on climate. It is also highly unlikely we are the primary factor.
