India to 'pull out of IPCC'

India has threatened to pull out of the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and set up its on climate change body because it "cannot rely" on the group headed by its own Nobel Prize-winning scientist Dr R K Pachauri.

By Dean Nelson in New Delhi

Published: 3:47PM GMT 04 Feb 2010

The Indian government's move is a snub to both the IPCC and Dr Pachauri as he battles to defend his reputation following the revelation that his most recent climate change report included false claims that most of the Himalayan glaciers would melt away by 2035. Scientists believe it could take more than 300 years for the glaciers to disappear.

The body and its chairman have faced growing criticism ever since as questions have been raised on the credibility of their work and the rigour with which climate change claims are assessed.

This could be the bullet in the head of the IPCC and Algore’s gloBULL warming scam.

Even the Indians don’t trust these book-cooking crackpots.

It begs the question, WHY DO THE ALLEGED “LEADERS” OF THE UNITED STATES??

ANSWER: FOLLOW THE MONEY AND THE POWER CURVE.

Good for India! They are not Europeans so are not on any kind of wacko guilt trip. They just want to lift their people up. I’ll bet the most common internal combustion engines there power farm tractors (you have to eat!) motor scooters and motor cycles and pedi-cabs

If India and China pull out this stuff is over. No one in the west is going to strangle themselves while the rising powers don’t. Except of course Europe.

“Dr” Pachauri has no education in bioscience.
He is a railroad engineer, or so I’m told.

India, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Canada, Russia, Brazil, have all found fault with the UN climate freaks. In addition, hundreds of scientists in Europe have offered their criticism. Although Obama and his climate cabal in the USA are holding on with their fingertips, they only look silly by doing so.

How do you say thank you in Punjabi? If all the BRIC countries pulled out, it would mean the end of this nonsense.

Hell, India is exempted from most of their climate blackmail crap and they still don’t like it. THAT shows the ridiculousness of the whole climate change fraud.
