Reason for primary focus on math and computer science

[edit]

I am not a expert on the atmospheric and other forces that drive the climate, but since I am a computer scientest I do know the limits of what computers can and can not do. Since it would be irresponsible to assume that the only reason we can not get reasonable climate models (IMO) is we do not have powerful enough machines to run the simulations on. Thus in order to remove that issue from the debate I focus on the theoretical computer science only. Either fortunately or sadly (depending on ones personal outlook) theortical computer science is almost entirely math based and unlike other math heavy sciences like physics the primary use of math is in realms that until recently and/or currently of theortical interest to mathimaticians as the often pertain to the limits of what is knowable mathimatically (which are in fact a more abstract form of the same limitations that computers face)
