Top climate scientists admit global warming forecasts were wrong
Top climate scientists have admitted that their global warming forecasts are wrong and world is not heating at the rate they claimed it was in a key report.

A leaked draft of a report by the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is understood to concede that the computer predictions for global warming and the effects of carbon emissions have been proved to be inaccurate.
The report, to be published later this month, is a six year assessment which is seen as the gospel of climate science and is cited to justify fuel taxes and subsidies for renewable energy.
The “summary for policymakers” of the report, seen by the Mail on Sunday, states that the world is warming at a rate of 0.12C per decade since 1951, compared to a prediction of 1.3C per decade in their last assessment published in 2007.
Other admission in the latest document include that forecast computers may not have taken enough notice of natural variability in the climate, therefore exaggerating the effect of increased carbon emissions on world temperatures.
The governments which fund the IPCC have tabled 1,800 questions in relation to the report.
One of the central issues is believed to be why the IPCC failed to account for the “pause” in global warming, which they admit that they did not predict in their computer models. Since 1997, world average temperatures have not shown any statistically significant increase.

They never will, of course, because the U.N.'s blaming capitalism for climate change has always been a political ploy, not a scientific one. It was designed to scare the sheeple into accepting global socialist control and wealth redistribution run by the U.N. The U.N. has been a Communist project from the outset. As Cliff Kinkaid wrote some years ago in Accuracy in Media:
"On every October 24 since he’s been President, George W. Bush has issued a proclamation recognizing 'United Nations Day.' Typically, Bush calls upon the people of the United States 'to observe this day with appropriate programs and activities.' The appropriate thing to do would be to acknowledge the basic truth that communist spy and State Department official Alger Hiss laid the groundwork for the U.N. and became its first acting secretary-general, causing it to be dubbed 'the house that Hiss built.' Hiss also advised President Franklin Roosevelt at the Yalta conference, which defined post-World War II Europe and betrayed Eastern European nations to Soviet control.
Ping.
Algore on suicide watch?
So, scientifically speaking of course, when does a “pause” become a “halt”?
I'm not worried about that. When dealing with averages, you can easily get resolutions of 0.01 degree.
Either the paper posted it wrongly, and then updated the website (without giving it a new update date), or Sub-Driver changed the figure in posting it here.
I'm inclined to favor the former explanation, but we need to deal in facts.
And its also significant that the quoted experts admit that there were warming periods hundreds of years ago that are equal to what we’ve seen now THEREFORE not caused by carbon emissions.
You don’t say.
“Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.”

Big news,....thanks!
Duh, I’m Tennessee Tuxedo!
When you’re making stuff up, you may as well make up orders of precision while you’re at it. In other words, I say it’s all just fabrication.
Still would like to hear an explanation from the OP as to the reason for numerical error or changes from original article.
Climate Scientist must be a phony degree.
Damn near a billionaire after discovering the greatest scam in the world. Parlayed his limited fame, coupled that with a bloated madness and effrontery that would choke a bull, succumbed to the cheeseburger imperative and carbon credits, futures and taxes (the single most brilliant thieving scheming crime EVER), and found a way to rid himself of an old wife in favor of any hotel maid/masseuse chick he could corner all in one fell swoop?
Brilliant, absolutely brilliant....Wrong? Yes, Brilliant? Yes.
Dang, no angry victim Gaia to pimp for Gore.
He'll just make the LSM vermin that provides him with the most cover an apparatchik, thereby encouraging the rest of the lemmings to parrot the bile that flows non-stop from himself and his sycophants.
Why? He rode that wave better than anyone, becoming a multi multi millionare. He can retire to his utility gobbling mansion and laugh at us the rest of his life.
It was warmer 9,000 years ago than it is today!
See the various graphs I’ve posted on my profile page.
I always tell libtards that almost all of the "evidence" for global warming is models derived from computer predictions....
That is not science...
They cannot get that though their wooden heads...
You reward failure often in science. You can learn much from failure in science.
Your question should be will they now quit awarding funds for politics rather than science. Why should the NSF ect be funding politics. Will these “scientists” quit being political activists and start being scientists.
Gee whiz, really?
The predictions were predictably wrong because they were part of advancing a leftist political agenda. The so-called scientists involved should be ashamed of themselves.
