While it is true that accurate weather forcasting is not always the result when application data is reduced to prediction, the notion that climate change is as unrealistic an assumption as uselessly carrying an umbrella on a sunny day may prove an underestimation of intelligence. We simply do not know in this short timeframe what the result of the apparent warming cycle we are in will be. It is accepted that warmer ocean waters will affect world conditions, we see the effects of this from historical record. To make a rant here of the realitive merits of any argument is a predisposed opinion, and as the saying goes, " Just like a******s, we all have them".

Meteorologists use models to forecast the weather and "Climate Change. As a matter of fact, at least 3 times last season the meteorologists for the National Weather Service used different models to forecast a series of storms heading for California. They warned about be huge rain and snow events.... None of them ever showed up.
Gee.... and those models and computers are only attempting to forecast 36-48 hours in advance. A guy with a barometer on a weather ship in 1870 could have done better!
Much of the "science of "Global Warming" and Environmentalism is no more than the alchemy of changing every product and endeavor of mankind into some sort of threat to the planet, species or ecosystems. In this neo-pantheist world we must atone for our sins by becoming green, or at least buy the indulgences of carbon credits (algore really rakes in the "green" on those). The penitent can recycle, eat vegan, take cold showers, turn their thermostats down and walk to work. If our souls aren't green enough the Nature Goddess won't allow the ambrosial nectar to flow in the afterlife, instead we become mere lumps of humus in Her garden.
People, awaken from your zombied-out, green stupor. Eco-ticians like Al Gore, Pelosi, Obama and their kind are not the saviors of the planet. They are gaining wealth and power by exploiting your fears and prophesying a doomed earth. Their "science" is nothing more than crystal gazing, and the wizardry of smoke, flame and mirrors - creating an illusionary world where maybes become certitudes, and models turn into reality.
Going Green Has Gone Too Far.
