Early global warming?

Early global warming says VV at VV. It is an interesting idea; if you haven't read his post you should. The AR5 radiative forcing graph he includes is interesting too:

I hadn't realised the forcing had grown much more strongly after 1950.

Back in 2013 I didn't take terribly seriously an announced review of the IPCC AR5 by a ctte of the UK parliament.
W00t, its the Big Fight, or at least its the spat du jour. Does anyone outside the little blogospheric circle care? My guess is no.
[RealClimate has a post with more useful detail.]

Am I missing something?

I thought the growth in forcing due to aerosols (global dimming?) was obvious. Michael Mann said so in one of his articles, the concern is the reduction in coal-fired power production might accelerate global warming in the short term.
