How can we model future changes in the global climate with the scientific models available?
The fact is….our current models, as intricate as they are, fail miserably at predicting our current climates based upon the data of the past century. Because they cannot model our current climates using fairly accurate historical data, there is no way for them to model future climate changes or “global warming” because there is no accurate data. Models that pretend to predict the climate a century from now, try to use current conditions and “estimated” values of dozens of variables for the future. As an example, clouds made of water vapor, both reflect sunlight back into space, trap heat in the atmosphere, and deliver water in the form of ice, snow, and rain. Without knowing how much cloud cover exists in say, 2025, and over what specific areas of the planet, we cannot tell what conditions will exist in 2030, 2035, or 2100. There are literally hundreds of variables that each climate model must account for in order to predict the general climate. Because of all these variables, it is
