The Mann et al. "hockey stick" graph, first published in 1998, was rapidly embraced by the UN IPCC as worthy of consensus. It was reproduced in Figure 1 of the IPCC science working group's "Summary for Policymakers" (which IPCC released to the press during the Bush-Gore election campaign, some nine months before the full report was released). This article by Muller is a great explanation of just one of many errors identified by McIntyre & McKitrick. See

Is it true that Pamela Anderson is known as "The Global Warming Blonde Bombshell".
Sorry I am a recent visitor to your blue planet and have noticed that PETA and the Global Warming Gang are quite close.

I'm so glad to see that the UN doesn't take the prospect of diminishing our liberties and imposing billions of dollars in costs lightly. I'm so glad they first pursued a strict scrutiny of the pivotal Mann data.
Right.
What is it going to take for us to realize that the UN is primarily a gang of thugs and looters, doing more harm than good?

How did this happen? Mann wanted it to happen. It funds his cause. And whatever increase in mean temperature over this period might have occurred, it WAS NOT caused by man.

I NEVER believed in "global warming". Thirty years ago the hue and cry was "global cooling".

published by University of Massachusetts geoscientist Michael Mann and colleagues. It's all a misunderstanding !!
What they MEANT to say was:
It's a fact that global warming is caused by Mann."
