It was presented as fact. The UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate
Change, led by India’s very own RK Pachauri, even announced a consensus
on it. The world was heating up and humans were to blame. A pack of
lies, it turns out.
The climate change fraud that is now unravelling is unprecedented in its
deceit, unmatched in scope—and for the liberal elite, akin to 9 on the
Richter scale. Never have so few fooled so many for so long, ever.
The entire world was being asked to change the way it lives on the basis
of pure hyperbole. Propriety, probity and transparency were routinely
sacrificed.
The truth is: the world is not heating up in any significant way.
Neither are the Himalayan glaciers going to melt as claimed by 2035. Nor
is there any link at all between natural disasters such as Hurricane
Katrina and global warming. All that was pure nonsense, or if you like,
‘no-science’!
The climate change mafia, led by Dr Rajendra K Pachauri, chairperson of
the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), almost pulled off
the heist of the century through fraudulent data and suppression of
procedure. All the while, they were cornering millions of dollars in
research grants that heaped one convenient untruth upon another. And as
if the money wasn’t enough, the Nobel Committee decided they should have
the coveted Peace Prize.
But let’s begin at the beginning. Mr Pachauri has no training whatsoever
in climate science. This was known all the time, yet he heads the
pontification panel which proliferates the new gospel of a hotter world.
How come? Why did the United Nations not choose someone who was
competent? After all, this man is presumably incapable of
differentiating between ocean sediments and coral terrestrial deposits,
nor can he go about analysing tree ring records and so on. That’s not
jargon; these are essential elements of a syllabus in any basic course
on climatology.
You cannot blame him. His degree and training is in railroad
engineering. You read it right. This man was educated to make railroads
from point A to point B.
THE GATHERING STORM
There are many casualties in this sad story of greed and hubris. The big
victim is the scientific method. This was pointed out in great detail by
John P Costella of the Virginia-based Science and Public Policy
Institute. Science is based on three fundamental pillars. The first is
fallibility. The fact that you can be wrong, and if so proven by
experimental input, any hypothesis can be—indeed, must be—corrected.
This was systematically stymied as early as 2004 by the scientific
in-charge of the University of East Anglia’s Climate Change Unit. This
university was at the epicentre of the ‘research’ on global warming. It
is here that Professor Phil Jones kept inconvenient details that
contradicted climate change claims out of reports.
The second pillar of science is that by its very nature, science is
impersonal. There is no ‘us’, there is no ‘them’. There is only the
quest. However, in the entire murky non-scientific global warming
episode, if anyone was a sceptic he was labelled as one of ‘them’. At
the very apex, before his humiliating retraction, Pachauri had dismissed
a report by Indian scientists on glaciers as “voodoo science”.
The third pillar of science is peer group assessment. This allows for
validation of your thesis by fellow scientists and is usually done in
confidence. However, the entire process was set aside by the IPCC while
preparing the report. Thus, it has zero scientific value.
The fact that there was dissent within the climate science teams, that
some people objected to the very basis of the grand claims of global
warming, did not come out through the due process. It came to light when
emails at the Climate Research Centre at East Anglia were hacked in
November 2009. It is from the hacked conversations that a pattern of
conspiracy and deceit emerge. It is a peek into the world of global
warming scaremongering—amplify the impact of CO2, stick to dramatic
timelines on destruction of forests, and never ask for a referral or
raise a contrary point. You were either a believer in a hotter world or
not welcome in this ‘scientific fold’.
HOUSE OF CARDS AND COLOUR OF CASH
So we have the fact that a non-expert heads the IPCC. We have the fact
that glaciers are not melting by 2035; this major scaremongering is now
being defended as a minor error (it was originally meant to be 2350,
some have clarified). The date was spouted first by Syed Hasnain, an
Indian glacier expert, in an interview to a magazine. It had no
scientific validity, and, as Hasnain has himself said, was speculative.
On the basis of that assertion, The Energy and Resources Institute
(Teri) that Pachauri heads and where Hasnain works in the glaciology
team, got two massive chunks of funding. The first was estimated to be a
$300,000 grant from Carnegie Corporation and the second was a part of
the $2 million funding from the European Union. So you write a report
that is false on glaciers melting and get millions to study the impact
of a meltdown which will not be happening in the first place. Now if
this is not a neat one, what is?
