Yes but. Today we are being bombarded by 'it's China', or 'it's Australia', or 'it's jet travel', or fracking, not to mention the infamous 'hockey stick' graph. (I admit to not having read the article linked to, but this is my reaction to your graphic.)

Title text: "Once he had the answer, Arrhenius complained to his friends that he'd "wasted over a full year" doing tedious calculations by hand about "so trifling a matter" as hypothetical CO2 concentrations in far-off eras (quoted in Crawford, 1997)."
