how is it possible for climate models to be as reliable as the models used in other branches of science?
In other branches of science, through observation and trial and error one can refine and reduce the uncertainties. In climate science it is acknowledged that the observations of our climate system are inadequate. Trenberth called it a "travesty".
He thinks it is a travesty that we lack proper observations, not that he thinks that the models are inadequate.
How can we model future changes in the global climate with the scientific models available?

Plllease Give Me a good answer!
Thanks!!!
Read MoreWhere is a published thermodynamic model for climate change with boundary conditions and equations?
Hearing about climate change predictions is unavoidable, but after about 3 hours of looking on the internet, I haven’t been able to find a published model. Presumably, this would be a 1st law, controlled volume model, which addresses emmissivity, absorptivity, their relationship to greenhouse gases, and the methodology of measuring current mean earth temperature as well as future temperature change. Any published model would be nice though. For all the people talking about these models, I’d think someone would have published it somewhere obvious.
Any help is appreciated.
Read MoreWhere could a person find funding for a green energy invention ?
Someone I know is looking for funding to build a green energy invention. Can’t give details because inventions have to be protected, but if anyone knows of a real source of funding for this kind of thing your help would be nice. It has to be available to the average person though, not scientists and so on.
Also this invetion so far has no working models, but it does not use any kind of fuel and produces no pollution. It is a power unit that will be used to turn a generator to produce electric.
How can climate scientists using in some cases only 30 years worth of data?
Say for a fact that we know that man is the main driving factor behind climate change. Just because the temperature has risen from a global minimum and CO2 has increased during the same time frame doesn’t mean that CO2 and methane are driving the temperature change.
For MTR and others who spout the use of tree rings etc to recreate past temperature history, than why does the US EPA now is seriously doubting this information? That is one of the points that I am trying to make, the more research into the climate the more the AGW models are being filled with doubts.
