The Real News Network has published the third part in the series – Answering Counter Climate Claims – Alan Robock on Reality Asserts Itself (3/5). My previous post Global Warming Theory Based on Evidence, Not Belief – Alan Robock on Reality Asserts Itself (1/5) actually covered the first two parts.
The part of the interview introduced here gets more to the point of explaining why the counter claims are easily disproved.
ROBOCK: There are over 150 claims that claim that people are not causing global warming, and they are all misrepresentations and cherry picking of the data. So it’s not challenging to answer them; you just have to tell the truth and tell what we actually know.

ROBOCK: … By the way, I’m a skeptic. To be a good scientist, you have to be skeptical of all the evidence, of all the model results of your own work, and always ask questions and challenge it. A good scientist is a skeptic
This segment could only touch on a few of the counter claims, but Paul Jay explains how The Real News Network will give its readers the opportunity to send in their counterclaims and get responses from Alan Robock. On the few issues that this interview does cover, Robock gives very good explanations of how scientists can compare the size of various effects and determine which ones are major at any specific time and which are minor.
