and that can reliably predict future observations. However, they seem to fail even at that.
A prediction of the average global temperature is best done by taking the daily energy of the Sun. Not by taking local weather conditions. The local weather is influenced by Clouds, and seasons due to polar tilt.
The AGT could go up, and yet the 'local weather' could get both hotter and colder than ever before.
Climate change occurs from changes in the Jetstream and changes in ocean currents.
Neither of those items is in any way controllable by man.
I think you misread my comment. I am simply saying that science attempts to use observations, “facts”, “evidence” to make predictions about future observations. We know, for instance, that we cannot exactly predict quantum mechanically unpredictable events. Science is not a crystal ball, it is important to know what we know and know what we don’t know.
Controlling physical events is engineering, not science. Successful engineers and engineering endeavors are constrained by the “laws of physics”. Always a good place to start, anyway.
