‘Seismic Shift’ In Climate Science: UN IPCC CO2-Induced Warming Estimate ‘Far Too High’

The IPCC said they were over estimating the damaging effects of CO2 by double what it was.
That's why none of their dooms day CO2 centric climate predictions came true. So instead of linking them all here is the root cause.

Neil saidjust a few pages back the sun has nothing to do with the climate.

I'll let Neil speak for himself,but I'd like to offer up some of the variables which NASA has had to consider and incorporate into their numerical models (by no means a complete list):
*albedo
*Arctic shallow sea methane hydrates
*aspherity of inner core
*black swan events
*cloud type (temporal/spatial
