IPCC’s ‘Disaster Of Biblical Proportions’

While the blizzard battered the U.S. East Coast, across the pond British newspapers continued to uncover more problems with the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change 2007 report.

Walter Russell Mead sums it up:

When the glacier story broke, IPCC apologists returned over and over again to a saving grace. The bogus glacier report appeared in the body of the IPCC document, but not in the much more carefully vetted Synthesis Report, in which the IPCC’s senior leadership made its specific recommendations to world leaders. So it didn’t matter that much, the apologists told us, and we can still trust the rigorously checked and reviewed Synthesis Report.

But that’s where the African rain crisis prediction is found — in the supposedly sacrosanct Synthesis Report.

So: the Synthesis Report contains a major scare prediction — 50% shortfall in North African food production just ten years from now — and there is no serious, peer-reviewed evidence that the prediction is true.

But there’s more. Much, much more.

Most scientists likely sincerely fear that we face massive man-made climate change. Yet they have little idea how much temperatures might rise or how that might affect various parts of the world. Warning that something big might happen someday isn’t much of a battle cry. So many scientists seem to have decided that alarming the public, by any means necessary, is justified. Because they knew climate predictions can’t really be proved or disproved, they didn’t question even the most outlandish claims.

The original Climate-gate scandal showed that key researchers appeared to hide and distort key data and try to blacklist dissenters. Now it’s clear that many widely touted predictions had scant evidence or were simply made up. The upshot? Climate scientists and their political allies are going to have a much harder time winning over the public … even if the crisis truly is one of biblical proportions:
