More Global Warming Fraud
As a kid watching the exploits of Chief Jay Strongbow and Captain Lou Albano I knew on some level that the WWF was fake.
As an adult when the World Wrestling Federation was forced to change it's name to World Wrestling Entertainment I still had a sense about the WWF.
The claim that Himalayan glaciers are set to disappear by 2035 rests on two 1999 magazine interviews with glaciologist Syed Hasnain, which were then recycled without any further investigation in a 2005 report by the environmental campaign group WWF.
It would seem that the claim in the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's Nobel Prize wining report that Himalayan glaciers will be melted by 2035 is a complete fiction. Utter Bullshit. Crap that some guy just made up.
Are you exhibiting the same lack of surprise at this news that I am?
What's more, the man responsible for including this fiction in the IPCC report, Dr, Murari Lai the coordinating author of the Asia section of the report, acknowledges that is was done for political reasons.
In an interview with The Mail on Sunday, Dr Lal, the co-ordinating lead author of the report’s chapter on Asia, said: ‘It related to several countries in this region and their water sources. We thought that if we can highlight it, it will impact policy-makers and politicians and encourage them to take some concrete action.
‘It had importance for the region, so we thought we should put it in.’
I guess this kind of gives the lie claim that Global Warming is about "settled science" and not about advancing global socialism under the guise of environmentalism.
But Wait... There's More!
It seems that the Chairman of the IPCC, Rajendra Pachauri, has effectively use the vanishing Himalayan glacier lie as an effective fundraising tool.
The latest disclosure: Rajendra Pachauri, chairman of the UN's (formerly) prestigious Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (known as the IPCC), may have raised millions of dollars for his New Delhi institute on the basis of the totally bogus 'glaciergate' claim by the IPCC that the Himalayan glaciers would melt by 2035.
According the the London Times, Pachauri's institute got money from the European Union and the US-based Carnegie Corporation to investigate a prediction that never had any scientific backing whatever, and one which all serious glacier scientists instantly recognized as impossible. The bogus claim was frequently repeated in the fundraising efforts -- and reiterated as recently as January 15 when the IPCC was already under intense pressure to admit it had blundered.
I think it would be interesting if the justice department launched a RICO investigation of the United Nations. I know there's probably some diplomatic immunity built into it's charter, but outside of the U.S. Congress is there any more corrupt organization on the planet?

The band wagon of global warming has the media on its side even when the lies are exposed. Just this morning in the Houston Chronicle was an article expressing the need to get the global warming movement back on track, get their momentum to a point where legislation can be passed.

They never give up, even when their lies go right to the heart of their religion of hysteria. Liars are going to lie, a lesson that some folks never have learned.
