IPCC
Fails To Come Clean Over Global Temperature Standstill
IPCC's Diversion Tactics Criticised
The
Global Warming Policy Foundation (GWPF) is criticising the IPCC for its
deliberate attempt to obscure the reality of an ongoing temperature standstill
and its failure to come clean about the failure of its models.
The
IPCC has decided to discount the global warming standstill since 1997 as
irrelevant and has deleted from its final document its original acknowledgement
(in its 7 June draft) that climate models have failed to ’reproduce the observed
reduction in surface warming trend over the last 10-15 years.’
Not
only has the IPCC failed to predict the ongoing temperature standstill, its
climate models actually predicted accelerated warming due to the increase of CO2
emissions.
Instead
of acknowledging empirical facts and growing uncertainties, the IPCC is trying
to divert attention from these key issues by claiming increased certainty about
the reliability of climate models and their outputs.
“Today
the IPCC has taken a huge gamble that will soon determine whether it is still
fit for purpose. Unless global temperature will begin to rise again in the next
few years, the IPCC is very likely going to suffer an existential blow to its
credibility,” said Dr Benny Peiser, director of the Global Warming Policy
Foundation.
