Hot Air posted a story today about the United Nations agency for 'climate change.' The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has withdrawn its claim that the Himalayan glaciers will be destroyed within twenty-five years by man-made climate change.
According to the article:
"A WARNING that climate change will melt most of the Himalayan glaciers by 2035 is likely to be retracted after a series of scientific blunders by the United Nations body that issued it.
Two years ago the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) issued a benchmark report that was claimed to incorporate the latest and most detailed research into the impact of global warming. A central claim was the world's glaciers were melting so fast that those in the Himalayas could vanish by 2035.
In the past few days the scientists behind the warning have admitted that it was based on a news story in the New Scientist, a popular science journal, published eight years before the IPCC's 2007 report."
Think about the implications of this statement. There was never any scientific research behind the claim in the first place--it wasn't faulty science--it was no science! The idea that the poorer countries of the world would use false climate claims to blackmail the richer nations of the world into paying them reparations is obscene. Take a look at some of the poorer countries that were at Copenhagen asking for money from wealthier countries. Are the governments of those poorer countries such that any money they received would go anywhere other than the pockets of corrupt leaders? Why was it assumed that only wealthy countries were polluting?
The current science of climate change is not scientific! The leaked emails, the reports of temperature monitors being placed next to air conditioning exhausts, and wrong numbers being used in the calculations are an indication that the science is flawed.
Even if scientists can somehow show that the planet is warming, can they prove that it is not a normal climate cycle? That seems to be the question.
