Corruption of Bribery
Chapter 6 : Corruption in the “Carbon World”
WGI assesses the physical scientific aspects of the climate system and climate change
WGII assesses the vulnerability of socio‐economic and natural systems to climate change,
the negative and positive consequences of climate change, and the options for adapting
to it
WGIII assesses the options on mitigating climate change through limiting or preventing
greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing activities that remove them from the
atmosphere
Each report is prepared by panels of authors, lead authors and contributors who draft Chapters
normally consisting of two sections. The first is called a Summary for Policymakers and is
supposedly a synopsis of the supporting section containing detailed scientific material based
entirely on published and peer group reviewed material.
The bias of each of the four IPCC assessments has been repeatedly pointed out by scientists‐notably the rewriting
of key passages in its 1995 “Summary for Policymakers” after the contributing scientists had approved the final

text .

The unauthorised changes made to the summary by Benjamin Santer of the Lawrence Livermore National
Laboratory included deletion of all of the expert reservations in the drafts and “single‐handedly reversed the
“climate science” of the whole IPCC report” Where the scientists said that there was no discernible human
influence on climate, the summary was written to say that there was. This was done without reference back to
the scientists concerned, but the summary was approved‐ line by line and word by word – by the IPCC’s
government representatives.
The alterations provoked a “magisterial blast” from Professor Frederick Seitz, a former President of the US
National Academy of Sciences, who wrote that in all his 60 years as a scientist he had never seen "a more
disturbing corruption" of the scientific process” and that if the IPCC was "incapable of following the most basic
procedures, it was best that it should be abandoned”.
A Canadian analyst identified more than 20 important passages in the IPCC's report which were not from peer
reviewed and published papers but were rather WWF or Greenpeace lobbying cameos. Other researchers have
uncovered a host of similarly dubious claims and attribution throughout the report.
8.2.2.3 Selection of Authors
Authors, contributors, reviewers and other experts are selected by a bureau of the IPCC from a
list of nominations received from governments and participating organisations. They can also be
identified directly by the IPCC because of their special expertise demonstrated by their academic
and peer‐reviewed publications.
