Thank you for the short introduction into the aims and structure of ENSEMBLES. What I really like about the project is the combination of scientists and people who depend and work with the new models. I think it is very important to bring the results of the research as fast as possible into the society to make adaptions. I finished my studies with making a model for algae growing with matlab and i made the experience that making a good model is also just the half way.

what a load of rubbish there is no climate change due to man the earth has warmed up much more than 2 deg in the middle ages!!!!!

You need to look at a lot more 'evidence' than the climate in the middle ages. Supposing you are right - we have two choices: do nothing because we don't need to or give the scientists the benefit of the doubt and do our utmost to deal with climate change for the sake of our grandchildren. If we deal with it there's no harm done. If we don't deal with it and the scientists are right it will become too late to take the necessary measures. I'm not prepared to take the risk.

Actually that's not correct. The Medieval Warm Period your referring to was a regional phenomenon in the North Atlantic region and not a global phenomenon like we're seeing today. The past half century is the warmest period in the last 1000 years and very likely the last 2000 years.
