OT-Scientists Admit GW blunders
azotic
2035 is likely to be retracted after a series of scientific blunders by the
United Nations body that issued it.
Two years ago the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) issued a
benchmark report that was claimed to incorporate the latest and most
detailed research into the impact of global warming. A central claim was the
world's glaciers were melting so fast that those in the Himalayas could
vanish by 2035.
The report read: "Glaciers in the Himalaya are receding faster than in any
other part of the world and, if the present rate continues, the likelihood
of them disappearing by the year 2035 and perhaps sooner is very high if the
Earth keeps warming at the current rate."
In the past few days the scientists behind the warning have admitted that it
was based on a news story in the New Scientist, a popular science journal,
published eight years before the IPCC's 2007 report.
It has also emerged that the New Scientist report was itself based on a
short telephone interview with Syed Hasnain, a little-known Indian scientist
then based at Jawaharlal Nehru University in Delhi.
The revelation is the latest crack to appear in the scientific concensus
over climate change. It follows the so-called climate-gate scandal, where
British scientists apparently tried to prevent other researchers from
accessing key date. Last week another row broke out when the Met Office
criticised suggestions that sea levels were likely to rise 1.9m by 2100,
suggesting much lower increases were likely.

Science has long been abandoned in support of the 'cause'. AGW is every environazi's
dream. Total control of everything they do not like. Green on the outside, Red on the
inside.
I'd rather see us spend a fraction of the costs the environazis want to enact on us to
raise people in Haiti and Africa out of the gutter they live in.

Where do you get ideas like that? You don't have a shred of evidence to
prove that statement. The question is why are you so quick to believe
the word of the energy industry that no amount of burning of fossil
fuels has any negative effect on the planet? They are telling you that
we can burn all the fossil fuels we want and it doesn't cause any harm,
and that if you say it does you're crazy. The truth is if you believe
them then you are just as dumb as the people who believed the tobacco
company executives who said tobacco was harmless. It's amazing that you
can't see the producers of pollution have financial interests in lying
to you.

No argument there, but that's another issue. The question is about
whether humans can negatively affect the ecology of the planet by
burning fossil fuels. The two sides on this issue are the producers of
the pollution are on one and scientists are on the other. You believe
the polluters. I'd say you have a personal bias and that is why you
believe the producers of pollution. You just want to believe them like a
Christian wants to believe the Bible. If you look at just the facts you
would see the logic in believing we can cause negative effects on the
planet. All you have to do is see the air pollution in China to know
what we can do. To think we can do the same thing on a global level is
pretty easy to believe. Unless you start up with your mind made up.
You've been snookered by the polluters lies, and they are good at it.

This is by no means an indication of science abandoning AGW. This is a
prime example of science policing itself to find the truth as best it can.
When a lazy, overzealous technocrat gets things wrong, he is called on it.
Of course this should have been caught earlier in a peer review process, and
I assume they will be improving that process.
On the other hand all the anti-AGW crap on the internet (such as the
Petition Project) that has been debunked many times as fraudulent still
stays on the web and commentators and bloggers still cite it.

No, read the full cited link. It was other scientists in the field who blew
the whistle, and now the IPCC is owning up to the error and correcting the
report. No AGW denier ever corrects anything.

Another article...
<http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/8468358.stm>
has the following from one of the whistle blowers. Note his final words.
-----------
Meanwhile, in an interview with the news agency AFP, Georg Kaser from
the University of Innsbruck in Austria - who led a different portion of
the AR4 process - said he had warned that the 2035 figure was wrong in
2006, before AR4's publication.
"It is so wrong that it is not even worth discussing," he told AFP in an
interview.
He said that people working on the Asia chapter "did not react".
He suggested that some of the IPCC's working practices should be revised
by the time work begins on its next landmark report, due in 2013.
But its overall conclusion that global warming is "unequivocal" remains
beyond reproach, he said.

Well, I just heard an advertisement from BP (British Petroleum) and in
the ad they were talking about global warming and what they are doing to
prevent it and how they were at the forefront of changing to new forms
of clean energy. I just wonder why they would be doing that if they
didn't know that the burning of fossil fuels was causing problems.
Apparently, the oil companies do know what their products are doing and
some are adapting to a situation where they are going to eventually
change to alternative energy sources. That alone ought to tell you they
think global warming is real and they have plenty of experts telling
them it is too. But you prefer to listen to the minority of non
mainstream science that denies what the majority believes. Did you
believe the tobacco executives too when they said they didn't think
tobacco was addictive?

Why do you assume I'm in the control of the energy industry? I'm just an observer of the

it, this last bit of news is icing on the cake.
Btw, I quit smoking for health reasons before the tobacco companies got busted. I noticed
a correlation between people I know and early deaths that smoked. Heck, every smoker knew
it, why do you think ciggarettes were refered to as coffin nails? We all knew the truth,
even when big tobacco lied.

OK, keyword here is "Advertisement"! The reason a company advertises is to
sell goods or services. A good advertisement invokes a positive emotional
response in the target audience and ties it to the product and the company
to boost sales. The advertisement targets people that are "concerned" about
the environment and sells stuff to them or enhances the companies image to
those people for future sales. Drawing conclusions from advertisements is
as foolish as claiming "It MUST be true, I read it in a novel!"

False advertising is fraud. So a company cannot make claims it can't
back up, especially not big ones like BP. If they say they are doing
this and that about global warming I think you can trust that they are.
They are trying to get business through advertising, that's true. But
they also have a lot of scientists working for them. They have been
accused of being gross polluters. Instead of denying it, which would be
a lie, they say they are taking steps to lessen it. That's just what
tobacco did. They didn't say tobacco was harmless after the facts proved
otherwise. They came out with anti smoking programs. I am saying BP is
doing the same thing and for the same reason. Their scientists have
confirmed for the company what the climate experts have found. They put
that stuff in their ads. If they thought like you they would be denying
they were responsible for any global warming. Why accept blame when you
did nothing wrong? So they know the facts. You have been shown them but
have decided not to believe them. Why, I don't know. If you actually did
some research into the subject you would find what everyone does, that
the vast majority of experts, and that means real climate scientists,
say that man is heating the planet up by burning fossil fuels. The
people who deny that are a small minority. That's just the facts, which
you could confirm if you really wanted to.

Your detective skills aren't very good if you are convinced of something
by the improper actions of a few and miss the rather large clues that
show something else. The fact that some people were acting dishonestly
doesn't discredit the work of literally thousands of honest scientists
who all have come to similar conclusions. Your assumption is that the
icing is the cake. You're busted back to street cop.

Good, glad to hear it. Tobacco sucks. But the point is the industry
leaders were lying to the public and selling a dangerous product they
knew the dangers of. Simple case of lying to make money even though it
would cost people their lives. Businessmen have done similar things many
times over the years. They put their financial interests over the lives
of innocent people. If you think the people who produce the fossil fuels
are not doing the same thing you are a sucker. They have set up a mini
industry that only functions to make it seem like their products are not
doing harm to the environment. To not see what they are doing means you
are either purposely ignoring it or you are just easily taken in.
Neither is very smart. Face it, companies will do just about anything to
stay in business and to make profits. To deny they are causing global
warming is right up their ally. They pay lots of people to help them
pass off their lies too. I just don't understand why you would not
mistrust them after you saw how the tobacco execs lied. Don't you think
the energy execs would do the same thing?

Scientists also gave us the eugenics programs last century and
look how well that worked out. As a matter of fact it was a britt
that came up with it, just like now they had lots of data to support
thier ideas all based on scientific reasearch. Fortunatley the GW
advocates got caught this time arround before they could do any
real damage. There were thousands of honest scientists at that time who
believed in and supported eugenics. In fact they were so convincing
they duped politians into passing laws that harmed many people and
caused untold suffering, some folks even died at the hands of these
scientists.
Blind faith in what scientists tell you is dangerious...

Blind faith in anything is dangerous. But who's advocating blind faith
in science? Even the scientists don't do that. Everything in science is
based on theory and is subject to change if there is new evidence. If
down the road all the evidence points to there being no global warming
that is what science will accept. But then, right now all the science
says it is happening. So that's what I'm going with. When the leading
global scientists say the threat of global warming is over and they
misinterpreted the data then I'll gladly accept that. Until then I'll go
with what they are saying the data shows as of now.

During an abandon ship drill in WW2, my father related, the Marines were
being instructed how to jump from the deck and protect themselves from
debris in the water. One grizzled old Gunnery Sergeant seemed singularly
unimpressed and uninterested. The instructor berated him for his
inattention and asked him how he expected to survive having a ship shot
out from under him.
He replied: "I'll do just like I did twice last war. I'll wait 'til the
deck's awash and just step off."

That's ok if it sinks slow, and level. If it doesn't, you'll be
pulled under and you may drown. The bigger the hunk of steel, the better
the chance you won't make it.
My relatives who served in the Navy were mostly submariners, so their
chances were very poor if their sub got hit.

If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day.
Do it for enough days, and you can destroy any local fishing industry,
thus assuring that you'll be able to sell his picture to those who
feel guilty about 'world hunger(tm)".
But if you teach the man to fish, he not only can feed himself for the
rest of his life, he might actually become self sufficient. Then you
can sell him hooks, line, bait, motors, a bigger boat, a trailer, a
car, even a fishing license. Possibly even a retirement program so
that he can travel to far off parts of the world and go fishing.
