Don't confuse weather with climate. They are two different entities and don't perform in tandem. For ex., overall warming of the planet could bring much colder weather to the British Isles.

Heck, the weatherman can't even predict the weather a couple of days out. So we should believe the models for a hundred years out? Something does not compute here. Computer simulations helped design planes with great accuracy, long before the codes produced good results for a particular vortex in the flow. It is a similar problem. Trying to predict global climatic change will never tell you what the weather in Oregon is going to be 1 week in advance.
