Examples
It seems that the reduction in albedo (the action of reflecting solar radiation back into space) has deteriorated to the point of no return.
If for instance, the model accurately predicts the things it is tuned to predict, such as avg global temperature and co2 concentration, yet in the course of doing so, errors force the relative humidity to rise to close to 100% without a corresponding increase in rainfall or cloud albedo, then such a model would be unphysical.
In the language of climate science, we would increase by a few percent the Earth's "albedo" -- the ratio of incoming sunlight reflected back into space relative to the total inbound from the sun.
