The climate
science consensus today is that these speculative climate forecasts, based
on flawed
computer models, did not happen and expert analysis of the gold - standard of temperature datasets (the UK's global HadCRUT4) confirms it.
In their responses, they throw much in the way to obfuscate the reality that Gummer's predictions were barely grounded even
on computer modelling, and were far from uncontroversial, even within
consensus climate
science.
