In Japan, at least – their scientists comparing global warming “science” to astrology. For the 70% of Americans who read their horoscope, that’s not particularly damning but among scientists, it’s a harsh bud, dude.
To summarize the discussion so far, compared to accurately predicting solar eclipses by celestial mechanics theoretical models, climate models are still in the phase of reliance on trial and error experiential models. There are still no successful precedents. The significance of this is that climate change theory is still dominated by anthropogenic greenhouse gas causation; the IPCC 4th Evaluation Report’s conclusion that from now on atmospheric temperatures are likely to continuously, monotonously increase, should be perceived as an unprovable hypothesis; it will be necessary investigate further and to evaluate future predictions as subject to natural variability. ®
The debate is, in fact, just heating up. There are vested interests whose egos and pocketbooks depend on perpetuating the myth of man-made global warming, facts be damned. If this is science, voodoo should be a respected religion.
