Climate Modeling

Trying to predict what the climate is going to do in future is a big project. Climate models are a main approach that is used when trying to predict the climate of the future. The process to create a climate model is no easy task and does not just happen overnight.The link below is a good resource to explore to learn the basics to the more in depth areas of climate modeling. The image below is an example of climate models. The back path is the current path of the Earth, while the colored paths are different outcomes that could be seen on the Earth depending on what choice are made about climate change.
