A WARNING that climate change will melt most of the Himalayan glaciers by 2035 is likely to be retracted after a series of scientific blunders by the United Nations body that issued it.
Two years ago the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) issued a benchmark report that was claimed to incorporate the latest and most detailed research into the impact of global warming. A central claim was the world’s glaciers were melting so fast that those in the Himalayas could vanish by 2035.
In the past few days the scientists behind the warning have admitted that it was based on a news story in the New Scientist, a popular science journal, published eight years before the IPCC’s 2007 report. Read the full story

We have found video of Al Gore being confronted by a group known as We Are Change Chicago at a signing for his new book – “Our Choice: A Plan to Solve the Climate Crisis” (which has been proven to use fraudulent images via Photoshop to help his cause). Reports have surfaced that scientists involved with global warming have used fraudulent or incorrect data have added new twists to claims that global warming is caused by man and increased CO2 emissions.
