But while Scotland and North America are still swept by blizzards, in their worst winter for decades, there has been something of a lull in the global warming storm \u2013 after three months when the IPCC and Dr Pachauri were themselves battered by almost daily blizzards of new scandals and revelations. And one reason for this lull is that the real message of all the scandals has been lost. <\/p>\n<p>The chief defence offered by the warmists to all those revelations centred on the IPCC&#8217;s last 2007 report is that they were only a few marginal mistakes scattered through a vast, 3,000-page document. OK, they say, it might have been wrong to predict that the Himalayan glaciers would melt by 2035; that global warming was about to destroy 40 per cent of the Amazon rainforest and cut African crop yields by 50 per cent; that sea levels were rising dangerously; that hurricanes, droughts and other &#8220;extreme weather events&#8221; were getting worse. These were a handful of isolated errors in a massive report; behind them the mighty edifice of global warming orthodoxy remains unscathed. The &#8220;science is settled&#8221;, the &#8220;consensus&#8221; is intact.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nSource: telegraph.co.uk<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/climaterealists.com\/index.php?id=5250\">Read in full with comments \u00bb<\/a>  &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/vMsJ6PyL__jTRLyffGUc8y0W9Y4\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/vMsJ6PyL__jTRLyffGUc8y0W9Y4\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/vMsJ6PyL__jTRLyffGUc8y0W9Y4\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/vMsJ6PyL__jTRLyffGUc8y0W9Y4\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/ClimaterealistsNewsBlog\/~4\/dgdy7hSobBE\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Article Tags: Christopher Booker, Headline Story, Pachauri Conflict of Interest Hurricane in Havana: despite predictions of more &#8216;extreme weather events&#8217;, hurricane activity is lower than it was 60 years ago Photo: AFP\/GETTY The emerging errors of the IPCC&#8217;s 2007 report are not incidental but fundamental.
