To be honest - not sure why I'm responding, as we both know you're really
asking a political question under the guise of a pseudo-scientific cloaking.
There are over 100 different global climate models used by the various
scientific disciplines. The oceanographers have their climate model,
the atmospheric chemists have theirs, the physicists have theirs,
hydrology scientists have one, planetary scientists theirs, and on and on.
Because global climate is quite complex, they construct their models
based on a foundation of the factors that are the most important to them
in their field of research, and hence all these models have have their
different strengths and different weakness.
But while all the models forecast better some phenomenon over others,
say cloud formation due to ocean temperatures, and not so well effects
of solar cosmic rays on cloud formation, what is most striking is they all
are in more or less agreement that the earth is warming, and that
anthropomorphic sources are the cause.
.
It's as simple as that.
Framing the issue as big vs small government? Wow.
Maybe they can make that a workshop at the next US Academy of Science
meeting.
