Simon Clark – Why have climate change predictions been so WRONG?

Summary:
We're in trouble!How climate change deniers have been misrepresenting the facts. In this video I wanted to address a common talking point - why have climate change predictions been so wrong? Year after year predictions are made that have no basis in reality, so why - especially in the aftermath of the latest IPCC report - should we trust climate scientists? In particular James Hansen and his prediction in 1988 didn't turn out so well, did it?Well, as it turns out, there's a very good reason. Because they're right most of the time, and their predictions, including those of the IPCC, have been borne out by reality. Sorry lol.[embedded content]Why have climate change predictions been so WRONG?
