in three subjects — computation, mathematics and physics (and I mean this literally — it is listed twice in this page devoted primarily to computational physics grand challenges, Navier - Stokes is one of the grand challenges in mathematics with a substantial prize, and both classical and quantum chaos, self - organizing phenomena and complexity in general are grand challenges in physics (all present in the single problem of understanding the climate well enough to compute meaningful predictions of future climate)-- it seems both unlikely that this science will be «settled» soon, nor is it at all unreasonable that it is not settled at this point in time.

* Here Anthony Watts acknowledges the fact that AGW has nothing to do with faith, but is true and tried science that should be the guideline for future, as physics and engineering both point to the fact that once a system that tries to reach an equilibrium according to QM (approximated by Newtonian mechanics) is disturbed enough it will change towards a new equilibrium state with potentially catastrophic and chaotic alterations in the system, which will present problems for the subsystems functioning within this system, in the AGW case this could be the human cultural system, though Watts doesn't mention it in the lead.
