Christopher Booker, in his inimitable style - cool and factual, continues to demolish the rabid taqqiya of the Global Warming Sect.
In sunday 24 January, in the Telegraph, he shows the lies and corruption of the International Panel on Climate Change.
Last week, the chairman of the IPCC, Dr Rajendra Pachauri was forced to issue an unprecedented climb-down: the statement in the IPCC report in 2007 that Himalayan glaciers could disappear by 2035, had NO SCIENTIFIC BASIS.
What has become apparent, is that the scientist from whom this claim originated, Dr Syed Hasnain, has for the past 2 years been a senior employee of The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI), of which Dr Pachauri is director-general.
The Himalayan glacier claim had helped TERI win a substantial share of a $500,000 bursary, from one of America's leading charities, along with a share in a 3 million euro research study funded by the EU.
Dr Pachauri was previously drawn into a huge row with the leading Indian glaciologist, Dr Vijay Raina whom he accused of practising "voodoo science"! Boot is now on other foot!
Dr Pachauri, on behalf of the IPCC, accepted, together with Al Gore, the Nobel(or Ignobel)Peace Prize! This is because Mr Gore emphasised in his film "An Inconvenient Truth", that the Himalayan Glacier melt threatened 40% of the world's population.
No word yet from Al Gore; "an inconvenient truth" maybe?
