The rapid melting of the Arctic sea ice, then, illuminates the difficulty of modelling the climate but not in a way that brings much comfort to those who hope that fears about the future climate might prove exaggerated.

One more thing on this point: the Stern Review, the most detailed model, the most detailed modelling exercise anyone has undertaken, of the effects of climate change is based upon that A2 model.
