Yet another group of scientists.

This herd of cats says what?

The report says the IPCC's conclusions "have become politicised and fail to convey the underlying uncertainties that are important in policy considerations."

They are saying that the cry about Global Warming is a Hoax!

[RightWhale]

What? This is stunning news for a Monday morning. Politics is falling for a Hoax. Or is political science a hoax? Or is the group of scientists [herd of cats] actually a band of political scientists?

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

LOL!!!

And what about the Kyoooto treaty?

[VOA]

When do we hear about this in US media?

As soon as there is global cooling in he\\.

First, Bush...

Tell ya what -- I'm betting this one thing has the most lasting effect anything else he did.

Love it. If the Earth has had ice ages, and has had warming trends in the past long before man supposedly existed, how can science 'know' that humans are having an impact at all? Maybe a warming trend is an unstoppable natural process. (According to science, the Earth has gone through heating and cooling trends in the past. Dinosaurs et all...)

Nice to see that some have kept their objectivity. Now wish they'd explain how a CFC (which is heavier than the surrounding air..) can possibly reach the ozone layer.....

I've said it before and consistently:
Minor tweaks in assumptions produce wild swings in results over the long run.
These models are LOADED with weak assumptions and bad data.
As any computer modeler can tell you, it's trivial
to get a model to produce the results you want.
The researchers' conclusion: we need more money.
These climate models are a waste of time and tax money.
