I’ve often wondered...if we hadn’t invented computers (and thus, computer models) would “climate change” even be an issue?
There’s a whole lot of “warning” going on, amidst no evidence, EXCEPT “computer models”.
To me, it’s tantamount to the old cartoons of the bearded, robe-clad man, carrying a “The End Is Near” sign on the street corner.
It has been one of the many 'Boogie Men' that the press has used for centuries. I have seen articles posted in the US and Europe that eschew everything from Global Warming to the next Ice Age. It is journalistic alarmism, akin to: If it Bleeds, it Leads.
Yes, there are NY Times stories written in the 1800s about climate change. This never ends. Communism and socialism are closely related to global warmism, having the same goals of separating you from your money and controlling your every move, and they existed long before computer models. Political rust never sleeps.
The saying "all models are wrong, some are useful" truly applies to *all* models: mathematical, religious, political, economic, climate, chemistry, quantum mechanics, and every physics formula ever invented. They are all over-simplifications. While a few of them are highly useful, all are certain to be wrong, sometimes very wrong.
