I think you both agree... somehow.
John states that the climate's rules are not changed (the reactions
remain the same, the rules of physics are not updated).
Jim states that the outcome will be different because the input
variables are differents.

To simplify, assume climate is a function f(x):= 3*x.

John states: f(x) remains unchanged.
Jim states: x was pi, next it is 4.

Both are corrects. old f(x) was 3 pi. new f(x) will be 12.
