Agree.
Even when experts have “data” it remains a hell of a job to emulate what happens In the real world.
Simply because, whatever we do in a “model” in any media, is “limited” in comparison to the millions of independent and interdependent variables which comprise “nature”
I guarantee the “data points” all experts combined have available to measure are
incomplete and
of uncertain "significance" in both there comparison and interaction,
when compared to the millions of independent variables which exist to react, interact and influence outcomes in the real world.
“Make the wrong choice and we could all be in deep trouble.”
Having grown up and lived through the tensions of a post WWII European nuclear Armageddon, my concepts of “deep trouble” are possibly biased and skewed, in a particular way which others have not experienced.
Somehow the idea of
a self promoting “expert” telling me we might have a problem in another half a century or so, if we do not turn our lives upside down today;
compared to
living within 20 km of a US nuclear strike force, there to counter a Russian strike force and the knowledge that the missiles were armed and the response time was 3 minutes before continental annihilation,
has probably left me feeling a little blasé and with a different consideration to what “deep trouble” actually implies :- )
,bennie “A smattering of London politics and an unbased assumption does not a worldwide conspiracy make.”
And a couple of so called experts insisting they are the only people capable of directing humanity does not a convincing argument make either
But based on the experiences of history, my ‘conspiracy theory’ contains more elements of probable truth than the hypothetic theories and machinations thrown around by the zealots and acolytes of AGW
