UNBELIEVABLE ! Still Another IPCC Screw-Up Found
The Lid/Times of London ^ | 2/6/2010 | The Lid

Posted on 02/06/2010 8:13:07 PM PST by Shellybenoit

“By 2020, in some countries, yields from rain-fed agriculture could be reduced by up to 50%. Agricultural production, including access to food, in many African countries is projected to be severely compromised.” OOPS NEVER MIND

Sometimes there is news that is just so over the line crazy you think it just has to be wrong, but it isn't. Such is the case with the United Nations IPCC's most recent report on climate change. During the past two weeks, there have been four major errors found in the report and today, number five was found.

It all started with the false claims that the Himalayan glaciers were melting and would be gone by 2035. That was followed with other mistaken claims, mountain ranges were losing their snow tops, global warming was damaging earths rain forests,and more than half of the Netherlands is currently below sea level (the actual number is actually less than 20%). The IPCC didn't even get their data from scientific studies, but used anecdotal information from advocacy groups such as the WWF and from mountain climbing magazines.

Is there anything in the IPCC Report that is accurate? It seems that day by day there is a new revelation about this fact or that fact being wrong. It’s time to just scrap the IPCC Report and call it fiction.

The IPCC was told by their political masters to make a case for Global Warming so that Carbon Cap and Trade could be implemented. They did as they were told, and as long as the media cooperated in marginalizing all critical views, they would have succeeded.

The ClimateGate leaker made it possible to start dissecting the conspiracy, and deserves a medal. If his identity is ever discovered, Soros will probably arrange to ensure his body is never found.

wow, that’s a great list of links you are maintaining -— hard to keep up with all aspects of this appalling scandal

will the Mediascum ever (finally) turn on Albore??? They may tear him some new orifices once they realize how badly they’ve all been discredited.....

I can see that he would be the perfect scapegoat in the USA, if enough of the media ever realizes that they must stop flogging AGW..... b/c then their line can be “Albore won his Nobel Prize for that stooopid film and AGW campaign, so how were we to know that he and the Nobel committee were so full of it?”

[Thank you for the compliment.]

I think they are in disarray. It’s incredible how much they hate the “hacker” [whistle blower] who busted Climategate wide open. Swarming over Google.
