The emerging errors of the IPCC's 2007 report are not incidental but fundamental, says Christopher Booker
The news from sunny Bali that there is to be an international investigation into the conduct of the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and its chairman Dr Rajendra Pachauri would have made front-page headlines a few weeks back. But while Scotland and North America are still swept by blizzards, in their worst winter for decades, there has been something of a lull in the global warming storm – after three months when the IPCC and Dr Pachauri were themselves battered by almost daily blizzards of new scandals and revelations. And one reason for this lull is that the real message of all the scandals has been lost.
The chief defence offered by the warmists to all those revelations centred on the IPCC's last 2007 report is that they were only a few marginal mistakes scattered through a vast, 3,000-page document. OK, they say, it might have been wrong to predict that the Himalayan glaciers would melt by 2035; that global warming was about to destroy 40 per cent of...

With all this mighty army of gullible politicians, dutiful officials, busy carbon traders, eager "renewables" developers and compliant, funding-hungry academics standing to benefit from the greatest perversion of the principles of true science the world has ever seen, who are we to protest that their emperor has no clothes? (How apt that that fairy tale should have been written in Copenhagen.) Let all that fluffy white "global warming" continue to fall from the skies, while people shiver in homes that, increasingly, they will find they can no longer afford to heat. We have called into being a true Frankenstein's monster. It will take a mighty long time to cut it down to size.

Just an excuse for these UN elites to meet in Bali. Why can’t they just meet in Bumf*ck, Egypt in a quonset hut?
Neverhappen, neverdem.
I wouldn't be so sure about that, especially if Inhofe becomes committee chairman next January. This could be a major campaign issue in 2012.

Too much money involved.
Too many GOPers involved.
Just as with the overpopulation catastrophe, the coming ice age and the swine flu pandemic, it will just fade from the public arena.
Almost US $80 billion worth in funding grants for studies, subsidies, etc. for this fraud that threatens to make energy expensive for an already lame economy.
Too many GOPers involved.
Almost, if not, exclusively RINOs, can you name one conservative?

This is the perfect club for smashing rats in the media, education and government as winters get progressively worse.

With my post. I am sorry. I have to sign off. So I don’t deliberately ignore any pings to me. I need sleep for early work schedule. Do have a great upcoming day.

WATCH THE VIDEO
The Great Global Warming Swindle
Without question the most talked-about documentary of the year.
The Global Warming Swindle is the definitive rebuttal to Al Gore’s ‘An Inconvenient Truth’. The film examines the mass of observational data (from temperature balloons, weather satellites, ocean temperature data, ice core records and much else besides) which directly contradict the popular theory of man-made global warming.
It features testimony from many senior scientists describing both the fatal weaknesses in the theory of man made global warming, and their failed attempts to bring these to public attention. The warming of the past 300 years, it is argued, represents a natural recovery from a period which is known to climatologists as the ‘Little Ice Age’. This warming has been mild, beneficial and cannot possibly have been caused by humans. Yes, humans have an effect on climate, but it’s an infinitesimally small pin-prick, compared with the vast natural forces which have always, and are still constantly pushing global temperatures this way and that.
This film turns the world upside down, and uses an extraordinary cast of the world’s top scientists to do it. It’s the morality tale of the decade - of politicians eager to pander to prejudice, throwing vast quantities of public cash into scientific research aimed at supporting an unsupportable theory. It’s a tale of scientists fearful of speaking out, of upsetting the funding applecart and jeopardising the many thousands of research jobs generated for them by the global warming scare.
The film is enlightening and disturbing. It describes how a fashionable prejudice was elevated to the status of unquestionable scientific fact. It shows how, in an age we consider rational, reason can descend into dogma. Global Warming is indeed the biggest threat facing the world today, but not in the way you think.
‘The Great Global Warming Swindle’ has won many awards and the praise of many senior scientists.
‘If you’re worried about the polar bears, watch this brilliant, devastating film.’ - Peter Hitchins, Mail on Sunday
‘Devastating’ - The Washington Times
‘The truth is out’ - Editorial, The Sunday Express
‘Only very rarely can a documentary be seen as a pivotal moment in a major political debate, but such is The Great Global Warming Swindle. Never before has there been such a devastatingly authoritative account of how the hysteria over global warming has parted company with reality.’ - Christopher Booker, Sunday Telegraph
Another blog that I post on regularly has some Ausssie and NZ regulars. In discussing AGW fraud, it was pointed by some of them (one had lived in GB) that be they left or right leaning politically, British journalists were “muckrakers” first.
I have found that to be true.

With all the technology today they should do the green thing and telecommute. However, it is hard to trade pats on the back while getting drunk and stealing the industrial world’s money through a video monitor.
