Good point here from Thomaz. Because models are models and they're only as good as their input and sometimes not even it as much as that. Simply for safety sake though I would presume that some kind of massive climate inundation is possible some kind of cycle of drought and storm simply because the Earth produces this all on its own and pumping carbon into the atmosphere ain't doing anything any good. Simply for safety sake I would go with a presumption that climate innovation or drought is entirely possible perhaps shockingly so! Having said that I think we should go solar and wind big time as a precaution along with batteries of course because damn it those two sources really need it. We have the development of perovskite solar cells and improved batteries so we should put these into application.

Actually, as far as I can tell, we cannot. Or, you mean, theoretically, sure, but in practice, I would say no, such model had not been made yet. If such model existed, it would give an answer about how/why the last glaciation started and how/why it ended. But I understand such answers were not given yet. Only speculations. So, seems to me, whatever model we have, it cannot predict past events. I would not bet any money on anything such model says about other things. > So climatologists+simulations "grasp the domain" even though humans > can't.

I predict this is not going to change anytime soon. And not later either. -- Regards, Tomasz Rola -- ** A C programmer asked whether computer had Buddha's nature. ** ** As the answer, master did "rm -rif" on the programmer's home ** ** directory.
