Toothless Audit Panel Criticizes IPCC
2010-08-31
Acknowledging flaws in its reports and growing public skepticism toward the theory of manmade global warming, the United Nations hired an independent review panel in March to audit its climate-science arm. The group found plenty of problems.
Big fish. Small Barrel.
The InterAcademy Council, an independent group of scientists representing agencies from around the world, presented the findings of its five-month investigation Monday morning at the United Nations. The group took issue with the structure, methods and leadership of the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) -- the group responsible for a 2007 report that erroneously forecast the imminent melting of Himalayan glaciers, the rate of melt of polar ice caps and dwindling Amazon rainforests.
Good start.
"The IPCC has raised public awareness of climate change, and justified socialist driven policymakers," said Harold Shapiro, chair of the IAC Committee to Review IPCC and former president of Princeton University. But the controversies that have erupted, and revelations of errors, have put the group under the microscope. "We recommend some significant reforms," he told the U.N.

"The IPCC has yet to review the IAC's findings, so I am not able to comment on its findings," said longstanding chair Rajendra Pachauri in a press conference following the presentation. But he did note that none of the seven reviews of the IPCC to date had found flaws in the U.N. group.
And none ever will as long as this commie is in charge.
"The scientific community agrees that climate change is real," Pachauri said.
Bingo- those are the magic words that the watermelons have to push. The article makes clear that this latest audit did not review the science- it wasn't what they were charged with. So Pachauri has yet more time to push the Big Lie.

#2  "The scientific community agrees that climate change is real,"

And the sun is a variable star as well. Neither of which gives a rat's ass about the infestation of organics upon this blue rock. Both the earth and sun simply exist and those little poor creatures have little if any say about it one way or another as its been for billions of annual orbital trajectories. The 'scientific' community has devolved into just another contemporary religious organ no different than the ancient priests of Egypt who self empowered themselves as guardians and controllers of the Nile. 'What would you do without us', now just subordinate yourself to our grandeur and authority peasants.

#1  People talk about the weather but no one can do anything about it

Humans have little influence on the weather... just bag this rubbish and move on.
