Sadly, the results will probably not be paid as much attention to as
probably could have been because
* the experiment did not involve the EBU, that is to say it should have been
"European Broadcasting Union Climate Change Experiment"
* alternately, the "Commonwealth Broadcasting Association" was not involved
either
* going to 2080 leads to a very high attrition rate; this experiment will
keep going for another year [or even 2 years] just to clear the backlog
* the experiment should have gone only to 2038, with a 2nd part going 1938
.... 2080; by selecting the most suitable model parameters that work for 1920
.... 2005, the 2nd part would only have needed 1/4 as many runs
* neither the PBS or NPR, ABC-AU & SBS, TVNZ-RNZ, or CBC-SRC will be running
the TV or radio programmes from the BBC
* the BBC World Service probably did not run coverage of this across all of
its language services
Still, it is a step in the right direction.
