This isn't unsupported. It is actually .03%. (See the equation that immediately follows it.)

And it is not that Man only contributed .03%. The argument is that we contributed ALL of it. All .03% of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere we put there. And EVEN then, there is only .03% of carbon dioxide and the math says that amount/percentage with the narrow band of absorption is still ONLY two-thousandths of an effect on Global warming.)
