Maybe now, people will question the precise data being put into these long range models, before accepting the output as gospel?







Blimey is someone slightly aggreeing with me after all these years?



I have not wholly disagreed with you throughout the years, but I still believe that a proportion of the warming over the last 60 years is due to greenhouse effects.



I just do not believe that until the computer program can be run in reverse and produce a very similar graph to the past, complete with the slight cooling between 1940 and 1980, that any predictions of the future climate can be relied upon.





Global climate models have been run on the past climate and can

reproduce the overall trend including the cooling between 1940 and 1960.

But what about the cooling between 1960 and 1980?

I misread the year range, I should have said 1940-1980.
