The revelations have been nothing short of jaw dropping. Dozens - yes dozens - of claims made in the IPCC 2007 report on climate change that was supposed to represent the "consensus" of 2500 of the world's climate scientists have been shown to be bogus, or faulty, or not properly vetted, or simply pulled out of thin air.
We know this because newspapers in Great Britain are doing their job; vetting the 2007 report item by item, coming up with shocking news about global warming claims that formed the basis of argument by climate change advocates who were pressuring the US and western industrialized democracies to transfer trillions of dollars in wealth to the third world and cede sovereignty to the UN.
Glaciergate, tempgate, icegate, and now, disappearing Amazon forests not the result of warming, but of logging. And the report the IPCC based their bogus "science" on was written by a food safety advocate according to this Christopher Booker piece in the Telegraph :
Dr North next uncovered "Amazongate". The IPCC made a prominent claim in its 2007 report, again citing the WWF as its authority, that climate change could endanger "up to 40 per cent" of the Amazon rainforest - as iconic to warmists as those Himalayan glaciers and polar bears. This WWF report, it turned out, was co-authored by Andy Rowell, an anti-smoking and food safety campaigner who has worked for WWF and Greenpeace, and contributed pieces to Britain's two most committed environmentalist newspapers. Rowell and his co-author claimed their findings were based on an article in Nature. But the focus of that piece, it emerges, was not global warming at all but the effects of logging.

yawwwwwn. so what else ya got?
The article continues:
“A Canadian analyst has identified more than 20 passages in the IPCC’s report which cite similarly non-peer-reviewed WWF or Greenpeace reports as their authority, and other researchers have been uncovering a host of similarly dubious claims and attributions all through the report.
These range from groundless allegations about the increased frequency of “extreme weather events” such as hurricanes, droughts and heatwaves, to a headline claim that global warming would put billions of people at the mercy of water shortages - when the study cited as its authority indicated exactly the opposite, that rising temperatures could increase the supply of water.
This is a great story. It has everything a media outlet could desire; scandal, conflict of interest (IPCC head Pauchuri runs companies that benefited from climate scare stories), government cover ups - why then, has this unraveling of the basis of climate science that posited catastrophic man made warming not been making any news at all in the United States?”
But they are all over James O’Keefe by God!
The left wing liberal media was plenty silent when millions of taxpayers marched on DC this summer, creating a sea change in American politics. They thoroughly deserve the name “presstitutes” and have the morals and ethics of crack ho’s.
Thank God for the internet. Woodpulp media is so last century.
I’ve wondered about them e mail’s that were leaked and blamed on the Russians just prior to the Global warming conference.
Wasn’t too long ago the donks dumped all over the CIA, Nancy calling them liars, thug’s an so forth.
Pay back’s a bitch, No one has fingered the leaker, The leaker has never spoke.
CIA doesn’t forget, Gore, media, and the Donks got sh!t all them...
kinda funny thinking about it
LOL!
U.S. Media Silent as Climate Scandals Continue
The fact that Nasa and the NOAA are now both implicated in data manipulation should be front page news. Instead, completely ignored by the media.
Our big media feels responsible for Obama being president (and rightly so as they were more kingmaker than lapdog). For this reason they just CAN’T bring themselves to report on the AGW hoax, not while their boy stubbornly insists on sticking with the old story. Obama just may be the LAST one to hear the news that AGW is a total bust, discredited top to bottom. This is a fascinating slow motion political train wreck!
Have you heard about Pauchuri’s new book?

Revealed: the racy novel written by the world's most powerful climate scientist
"The chair of the UN's panel on climate change Dr Rajendra Pachauri has taken a break from writing academic papers on global warming to pen a racey romantic novel." That ought to improve his reputation.....gads.
Dat be da one!
Ping!
I'd look forward to the near future responding to their question, "Would you like to super-size that?" (no), but I'm not in that establishment very much.
