      Climate change because of human action has always been VERY predictable. Have you heard about Svante Arrhénius, a scientist of the end of the 19th century ? He saw the problem with coal. Changes due to gases are EASY to calculate. Found this, in english :https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2005/jun/30/climatechange.climatechangeenvironment2 …

      Yeah, of course peiple can see that there will be environmental problems even 100 years ago, but that's not what Dyson or I mean by prediction. Prediction means that you have confidence in the likelihood of a particular event at a particular time. No model will tell you that.

      It's the same thing as scientists know which zones are more prone to earthquakes. That part is simple. Yet nobody can actually predict actual earthquakes until immediately before they happen. You can only determine general trends, not specific predictions.

      For example, you can say that in 2050, average daily variance in temperature in France would be greater than in 2000 with a 80% confidence, but you can't predict what is the temperature on June 6, 2050 in Paris. Or the date the next big catastrophe will be here.

      In this example, you are mixing by mistake, like Trump but with much more intelligence, meteorology and climatology, 2 separate (not completely of course) scientific fields : meteorology prediction unit, the day ; climatologic scenarios units, the year, the decade => ≠ scales.

      I’m not sure what you are mixing but it’s all essentially history and the problem of induction in dynamic systems. Same predictability problems exist across domains. Prediction further out becomes less reliable so years, months worse than days.

      According to Pierre Larrouturou, another kind of people, non scientists, have a good overview on what's happening : re-insurers (insurers that assure insurance companies). They observe that the number of huge destructive climatic phenomenons is constantly increasing.

      You should look into Jean Pierre Dupuy’s work

      This is his book but he has some lectures - A Short Treatise on the Metaphysics of Tsunamis (Studies in Violence, Mimesis, & Culture) https://www.amazon.com/dp/1611861853/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_GArgBbJQPDNVD …

          I bought it but didn't read it yet. I appreciate Jean-Pierre Dupuy and listened to him on conferences on Youtube, read interviews. René Girard in Droopy mode 🙂 I globally agree with him too.
