micheal crichton?
i thought the models were only designed to scare us.. yet the reality turns out to be worse.
what gives?!?

owell, a dead ocean (or 7) is No Big Deal. Humans are Smarter than Nature and will win the War against Earth!!11!

The ocean west of the Antarctic Peninsula has warmed by more than a degree since the 1960s - contradicting the results of computer models.

Computer models had suggested that a combination of ice, winds and currents would keep the Antarctic water cool and shield many marine creatures from the effects of climate change.

"Air temperatures on the Antarctic Peninsula have gone up by three degrees in the last 50 years or so and none of the computer models show that either," Professor Peck told the BBC News website.

"So I think you have to accept that the ability of the models to characterise polar regions is relatively poor."
