Met Office Accused Of Making Implausible Climate Forecasts Using Junk Models
times headlineA new study by the UK Met Office claims that accelerating global warming will make extreme rainfall events in the UK four times more frequent by 2080 compared to the 1980s.
This story has been widely covered in the news media.
The Met Office claims are derived from computer modeling based on the so-called RCP8.5 emissions scenario, the most extreme pathway for global greenhouse gas emissions, which the Met Office misleadingly describes as “plausible.” [emphasis, links added]
In reality, most credible scientists regard RCP8.5 as implausible given that global emissions data and technological advances essentially rule it out.
As a result, the Biden Administration has abandoned using this discredited worst-case scenario.
