All you need to know about why "climate science" is so far from
being able to make reliable forecasts of future climate: ...the
Apollo Program, the greatest technological accomplishment of the
20th century, could be achieved by NASA with a total computing
capacity inferior to a modern cell phone’s – simply because all
the scientific and technological requisites for that great
enterprise were based on known physical and chemical laws and
properties. In contrast, all the world’s computers now existing
linked together could not provide a precise simulation of the
climate dynamics – because the programmers would lack the proper
knowledge of its functioning as a system and of all the
interacting factors that influence it. The entire essay is here.
You'll notice the climate model forecasts are always for 10
years or more in the future. Why? Because they utterly fail when
used to forecast the climate (average temperature and rainfall)
for the next few seasons (i.e., a forecast for summer 2011 made
now). So, those fo
