Every other climate prediction has been wrong so why should this one be believed?
And you are either a liar or a fool that has never researched the information you flap yap about. See Dr. Hansen's paper on CO2 in 1981. Made some very accurate predictions, predictions the denialists have been running from for 30 years.
*shakes head*
You want to reference a 33 year old paper that is absurdly outdated with false information? Here, try this on for size.
The evidence, therefore, indicates that the current generation of climate models (when run as a group, with the CMIP5 prescribed forcings) do not reproduce the observed global warming over the past 20 years, or the slowdown in global warming over the past fifteen years.

And you are just another flap-yap liar that has never done the least research on the subject
Lessons from Past Predictions: Hansen 1981
Predicted Climate Impacts
Hansen et al. also discussed several climate impacts which would result as consequences of their projected global warming:
"Potential effects on climate in the 21st century include the creation of drought-prone regions in North America and central Asia as part of a shifting of climatic zones, erosion of the West Antarctic ice sheet with a consequent worldwide rise in sea level, and opening of the fabled Northwest Passage."
We can check off all of these predictions.
The southwestern United States and Central Asia have experienced frequent droughts in recent years;
The West Antarctic ice sheet has eroded;
Global sea level has risen; and
The Northwest Passage opened in 2007
