Which is of course EXACTLY what the "models" you reference are.

My models almost always predict initial conditions veeeeeery accurately.

The point is that it isn't economically damaging.
OK. So if the government allows me to pollute for free - the pollution causes no economic damage. Got it. quote:They are.
Consumers aren't going to buy damaging products

Even though those example hold very little economic benefit, they have moved entire markets. No taxes required. Just consumer demand.
Clearly not the case with the carbon market. Thanks for making an argument that holds no basis in reality.
BTW - you know what is in reality? The fact that consumers and companies alike are primarily motivated by one thing. Can you guess what it is?

You actually think the atmosphere is the private property of the oil and gas companies, don't you?

LSURussian - does the article you linked to talk about the Antarctic ice sheet - or the Antarctic sea ice?

So glaciers have never melted before?
No...never. That's why there is a mile thick sheet of ice over Chicago.
Wait, what...? I am just learning that, in fact, there is no longer a mile thick sheet of ice over Chicago and hasn't been for about 10,000 years.
In other news, apparently, there were SUVs 10,134 years ago.

Can you describe the section of code you posted?
I can. Come on fake PhD, show your chops

So you're saying that both DUDX and SDPU =0 ???? Well why the Frick didn't you say so before?? That changes everything !

So if the government allows me to pollute for free - the pollution causes no economic damage. Got it.

Ahh. So you're just A-OK with our common property rights being violated on a daily basis.

Government doesn't own all the water on Earth either but if the rancher upstream from you is taking more water for his cattle than he has a right to, guess who stops him?

DUDX is a derivative - du/dx.
Not sure about SDPU. Maybe entropy.
We can probably look in the paper and see the equations in plain mathlish.
These old FORTRAN codes are hard to read. Ask CptBengal, he's an expert on everything.

Basic property law. You have to demonstrate financial damages to be entitled to compensation.
I'd argue that the upside of having electricity, plastic, modern medicine, electronics, is by far a net benefit even if the hyperbolic doomsday predictions occur.
quote:So overstepped Government bounds means do it more? Great argument you have there.

Secondly, how does one determine how much he "has a right to"?

It was all the rage in the 80's. A lot of scientists still use that shite. Drives me fricking crazy.

Actually most academics so use Fortran for large models.
In fact there are several astrophysicist professors at lsu who use Fortran.
Fail. Fake PhD
