When change isn’t for the better it should be changed. Individual liberty rules. Economic freedom works. Shine a light on the nihilism of anti-energy darkness. Park your camel and drill baby drill.
We can all appreciate the nuances of the various mathematical approaches to problem-solving. We should not, however, deceive ourselves or others when it comes to applying these approaches or being fooled into believing public schoolteachers can use them to model the Earth’s climate.
We can legitimately undertake the task of modeling the Earth’s climate only if we can first admit that our understanding of anything that is a holistic process will always be very limited. Only those with such candor also will know that our ability to effectively model climate is very limited.
Humans lack the capability and capacity to perceive and analyze the relevant information or to even manipulate in any meaningful way any of factors that are involved in such a grand heuristic undertaking. And, there is nothing humanity can do that will ever have the slightest effect on the outcome of the process. Believing otherwise is to dedicate the living to an irrelevance that can only result in the building of another Tower of Babel.
Divining the future from the shadows on the walls of Plato’s prison cave may be as close the science of climate prediction will ever come to reality: the shifting crusts and volcanic eruptions, oscillations of solar activity on multi-Decadal to Centennial and Millennial time scales with variations in gamma radiation, the roles of the big planets, Saturn and Jupiter, a changing North Pole and variations in the magnetosphere all are but a part of a holistic process that is the Earth’s climate. Humanity is along for the ride. A man’s got to know his limitations. ~Callahan
