Africagate: top British scientist says UN panel is losing credibility

www.timesonline.co.uk

A LEADING British government scientist has warned the United Nations’ climate panel to tackle its blunders or lose all credibility.

Robert Watson, chief scientist at Defra, the environment ministry, who chaired the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) from 1997 to 2002, was speaking after more potential inaccuracies emerged in the IPCC’s 2007 benchmark report on global warming.

The most important is a claim that global warming could cut rain-fed north African crop production by up

Blow after blow after blow. Pachauri is really taking a beating. IPCC is taking a dive. Their impeccable science is seaming more like Swiss cheese every day.

Truthfully I'm proud that the British media is still picking up on this story. They are doing actual reporting, unlike on this side of the pond. Even Fox news has seemed for forget this debacle. At least as long as the Brits continue to pull the wool off their eyes, we can reap the benefits of their investigations.

The only problem is that the US government just simply doesn't care. They will find back ways to impliment the taxes at the state level.

Stuff the insignificant nerds in the climatology arm of the UN! The entirety of the United Nations is completely impotent to deal properly with things inside thier area of responsibility. Like for instance giving the Israeli and Palestinian warmongers a hard and heavy slap (Im talking scentences people), like taking Mugabe out, like making war criminals fear for thier lives.
They have no backbone, and they are bloody useless.

Despite what their publicly admitted agenda is, they seem not to be about 'that' at all. They seem to be a construct for something else... which is why conspiracy theories abound on the subject.

They have been very successful in orchestrating the international bank's rise to transnational superpower. They have made tremendous strides in 'channeling' the flow of commerce - within existing dynastic commercial empires. They have redoubled the power of the powerful, and halved the empowerment of the meek.

Me thinks, the rest was marketing.

Irregardless of political posturing, the outlook for rainfall in the Sahel remains bleak.

Sahel drought

en.wikipedia.org...

In 2005, a series of climate modeling studies performed at NOAA / Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory indicated that the late 20th century Sahel drought was likely a climatic response to changing sea surface temperature patterns, and that it could be viewed as a combination of natural variability superimposed upon an anthropogenically forced regional drying trend.[17] Using GFDL CM2.X, these climate model simulations indicated that the general late 20th century Sahel drying trend was attributable to human-induced factors; largely due to an increase in greenhouse gases and partly due to an increase in atmospheric aerosols. In IPCC future scenario A2 (CO2 value of ≈860 ppm) Sahel rainfall could be reduced by up to 25% by year 2100, according to climate models.

I would be overjoyed if current models were proved to be inadequate and a reversal of drought conditions were indicated, but wouldn't we all be?

Good catch OP. This is something to celebrate. This is a battle that we are making positive headway with. It's obvious now that the whole UN system is as corrupt as national politics, banking and the EU.

The problem is that we are all going to have to work hard to keep the climate change debate in the minds of the sheep so that eventually they discover and make sense of the lies for themselves. We can drag the sheep to water but they will only drink of the truth when they are ready.
