Computer models forecasting global warming are not scientific


Since I am in the middle of an area ravaged by an ice storm, it seems appropriate to talk about the weaknesses of the global warming theory. The global warming predictions have been a failure. Temperatures have been falling globally since 2002. Now, the former chief of NASA says the computer models predicting radical climate change are not proven scientifically.

No Scientific Forecasts to Support Global Warming

YESTERDAY, a former chief at NASA, Dr John S. Theon, slammed the computer models used to determine future climate claiming they are not scientific in part because the modellers have "resisted making their work transparent so that it can be replicated independently by other scientists". [1]

Today, a founder of the International Journal of Forecasting, Journal of Forecasting, International Institute of Forecasters, and International Symposium on Forecasting, and the author of Long-range Forecasting (1978, 1985), the Principles of Forecasting Handbook, and over 70 papers on forecasting, Dr J. Scott Armstrong, tabled a statement declaring that the forecasting process used by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
(IPCC) lacks a scientific basis. [2]Excerpted from rightsidenews.com

I am delighted that James Hansen has promised President Obama record high temperatures before the end of his first term. Apart from committing himself to an easily verifiable fact, it also indicates a degree of desperation...
Hope you get through the ice storm OK, my wife and I have just come in from the beach for our morning swim !

The beach! I am so jealous.

Theon is not a reputable denier.

97% of climatologists working in the field of climate change believe in anthropogenic global warming.

Why else would they be working in the field of Climate change if they did not believe in anthropogenic global warming? They certainly wouldn't get any government grant money. That doesn't mean 97% of climatologists believe in global warming.

You gotta love Science... So, how do they explain the colder than normal winter?

Ah! An article from Right Side News! Bound to be TOTALLY OBJECTIVE and not in ANY WAY BIASED there, so good for you. Wouldn't want you posting any old crud on such an important topic.
