This is another dysfunctional UN group. Do you remember the Chapter 8 problem with the 1995 report? You know, the one where Benjamin Santer, the convening lead author, completely changed the conclusions and was duly blasted?We'd better take out some stuff!
When you have a political agenda, you certainly don't want these conclusions in the final draft:
- "None of the studies cited above has shown clear evidence that we can attribute the observed [climate] changes to the specific cause of increases in greenhouse gases."
- "No study to date has positively attributed all or part [of the climate change observed to date] to anthropogenic [man- made] causes."
- "Any claims of positive detection of significant climate change are likely to remain controversial until uncertainties in the total natural variability of the climate system are reduced."
Then you have those pesky assumptions:
The US is good for "only" 26% of global crude consumption, but you guys are only 4.5% of the global population!!!
I see you have quickly retreated from your fictitious "statistics".
What I find most amusing about this entire issue is that the biggest cheerleaders were saying as recently as 1971 that we were headed for the next ice age!
