>> the computer models have overstated the impact
But, but, but... the scientists, the data, the computers, the models!!!
While the data inputs may be accurate, the modeling doesn’t necessarily reflect reality.
An expert on the topic said, “the science is settled.”
Does the likelihood that temperatures will NOT rise to the predicted level by 2022 mean that they will not rise to that level a decade or two later? I am very worried about the very warm oceans that are spawning such a devastating swarm of hurricanes this year. I am particularly worried since my son and family are currently living in Puerto Rico. They had moved from Miami, so at least they are higher above sea level. Will we continue to have such warm oceans? What, if any, conditions in North Africa have influenced the current hurricane formation?
Regarding Paris agreement, we are in until 2020. I am not sure if we should get out of a world wide agreement, but we should definitely negotiate better options. We may have more influence inside it than on the outside.
