Climate change predictions must be based on evidence, report on IPCC says
2010-08-30
The UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change should only make predictions when it has solid scientific evidence and avoid straying into policy advocacy, a group of national science academies has warned in a report.
That's just a smoke-screen; the IPCC will do as it pleases and proclaim that its evidence is 'solid' and 'scientific', and that its recommendations are not 'policy statements'.

#5  "The UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change should only make predictions when it has solid scientific evidence and avoid straying into policy advocacy"

In other words, they need to come up with some more believable lies.

They gotta protect their phoney-baloney jobs somehow. :-(

#4  By the above, GW + Climate Change, etc, exists only widin the narrow-scoped dimension of linear statistical or other mathematical extrapolation, THUS THERE IS NO NEED FOR MAN TO EVER LEAVE EARTH + EXPLORE DEEP SPACE BECUZ THE "RATIONAL" SOLUTION TO MMGW + CC, ETC. IS FOR MAN TO REDUCE HIS CONSUMPTION.

#3  Same old COLD WAR SECULARIST ARGUMENT = NOTHING EXISTS UNLESS MANKIND + ONLY MANKIND CAN ABSOLUT QUANTIFY = CONTROL IT, ergo demand for OBJECTIVE OR EMPIRICAL EVIDENCES IN ORDER TO REACH SUBJECTIVE OR SURREAL = "POLITICIZED" CONCLUSIONS.

You know, RELIABLY OR CONCLUSIVELY
"PREDICTING/FORECASTING" THE FUTURE.

Yep, yessirree, you betcha!
