RSSAnother incisive blog post from Roger Pielke Jr: In Australia yesterday, Climate Change Minister Penny Wong gave a speech is which she discussed the claims that the IPCC had misrepresented the science of disaster costs and climate change. She stated: Another claim is that the IPCC exaggerated economic losses from catastrophes attributed to climate change. [...]
The UN IPCC has more fiddles than an orchestra. Roger Pielke Jr has uncovered the willful misciting of a graph: “In short, RMS has now independently confirmed that the IPCC willfully miscited the graph to avoid a publication deadline and admits that the IPCC shouldn’t have included the graph in the first place, because it [...]
More trouble looms for the IPCC. The body may need to revise statements made in its Fourth Assessment Report on hurricanes and global warming. A statistical analysis of the raw data shows that the claims that global hurricane activity has increased cannot be supported. Read the entire article at The Register: Now IPCC hurricane data [...]
Cartoon by Josh So far we have had the IPCC scandals of ClimateGate, GlacierGate TeriGate, AmazonGate, DisasterGate, HollandGate, AfricaGate, DroughtGate, and PachauriGate, which have unsurprisingly prompted calls from those on both sides of the climate debate for the IPCC to be scrapped or reformed. This week’s Nature contains an opinion article entitled, ‘IPCC: cherish it, [...]
Blogger Bishop Hill: While perusing some of the review comments to the IPCC’s Fourth Assessment Report, I came across the contributions of Andrew Lacis, a colleague of James Hansen’s at GISS. Lacis’s is not a name I’ve come across before but some of what he has to say about Chapter 9 of the IPCC’s report [...]
The embattled head of the United Nations’ climate change panel clocked up more than half a million miles of air travel in a year and a half as he travelled the world warning of the global warming threat, The Daily Telegraph can disclose. On his international missions, Rajendra Pachauri, the chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel [...]
The research institute (TERI) run by the head of the UN’s climate body has handed out a series of environmental awards to companies that have given it financial support, The Sunday Telegraph can disclose. The Energy and Resources Institute (Teri), of which Dr Rajendra Pachauri is the director-general, has given corporate awards to companies such [...]
Similar in effect to the erroneous “2035″ claim – the year the IPCC claimed that Himalayan glaciers were going to melt – in this instance we find that the IPCC has wrongly claimed that in some African countries, yields from rain-fed agriculture could be reduced by up to 50 percent by 2020. At best, this [...]
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 Railway Engineer-Economist Dr R K Pachauri. The Indian government’s move is a snub to both the IPCC and [...]
Steve McIntyre of Climate Audit has noted that IPCC AR4 reported: The Netherlands is an example of a country highly susceptible to both sea-level rise and river flooding because 55% of its territory is below sea level where 60% of its population lives and 65% of its Gross National Product (GNP) is produced. Dutch newspaper [...]
