Default Re: Man Made Global Warming Theory = Human Excrement

I've stated many times on this forum that I believe climate science is extremely worthwhile and that climate modeling is equally as worthwhile more or less. I've also stated many times that I believe it's a good idea to err on the side of caution. With that caveat, I'm going to stand by my statement that the predictive value of climate models is unproven. To reiterate again:

unproven does not equal wrong

unproven does not equal right

unproven does not equal worthless


The predictions of climate models vary alot and I'm fairly certain that in 100 years the climate models will be improved alot. For no other reason than the capability of high speed computing will have advanced considerably and there will be more data to evaluate. Modeling the earths climate is a complicated endeavor; climate models are fairly new and thus I believe that as time goes on we'll learn alot more about developing climate models. As I stated before the problem is we may not have 100 years.
