You live on a planet that is around 4.5 BILLION years old. A planet with a molten outer core, spinning on its axis at around 1,000+ MPH, in an elliptical orbit around our star traveling at around 65,000 MPH, on the outer portion of a spiral galaxy that takes how many millions of years to complete an orbit of our galactic core; all the while interacting with electro-magnetic and other solar radiation from our star, not to mention the bombardment of cosmic radiation from our galaxy and beyond.

And you want to take a climate model based upon our rather limited, infinitesimal recorded history, and even smaller data set with more granular measuring and recording instruments, not to mention still limited understanding of all the variables, and make predictions as to our future?

Good luck with that.

Personally speaking; whatever is going to happen, is going to happen, and there ain't a whole hell of a lot we can do about it.

Actually physicists talk quietly about possible cooling methods - but the PC folks already freak out over a nice safe reactor... they might explode if we talk about picking an island and creating a mild nuclear winter by blowing it to Kingdom Come.
