During 1988 Congressional testimony, NASA's James Hansen publicly shared his climate model's simulation predictions that stretched out to 2020AD.
His prediction for the global temperature increase for the period of 1960 to 2012 was an approximate +1.17°C. The actual increase was only +0.50°C.
For the exact same time period, the above very simple estimator tool produced a result of +0.45°C - significantly closer to actual reality than the multi-billion dollar climate model used by NASA.
