Here's your problem Gadfly,
Quote:
"The IPCC does not conduct any research nor does it monitor climate related data or parameters."

In other words this is just a political body's interpretation of a collection of work brought to you by one of the most corrupt organizations in the world....The United Nations. They can't even nor will they enforce there own laws. If they had we wouldn't be in Iraq right now.

Here's a great quote I found online.

Politics, not science, drives the United Nations' work on climate change, warns Dr. Richard Lindzen, one of the world's leading atmospheric physicists

Here's another example. The FOUNDER of the weather channel John Coleman is sewing Al Gore (the creator of the Internet for all you who don't know him) for the fraud he is. This is someone who makes weather his business.

Dr. Bill Gray, a pioneer in hurricane forecasting believes that Global Warming is more hype than science.

These are just a few people, who know a heck of a lot more about climate than anyone, and I mean anyone that will post in this forum. These are climatologists! I don't have to tell you Global warming is a hoax. You've got skilled credible professionals that can give you plenty of reasons to be skeptical. If Global Warming is so real and has the science to back it up, why are these people denouncing it?
