Corruption of Bribery

Chapter 6 : Corruption in the “Carbon World”

The coordinating lead authors have the role of pulling together the content of their respective
Chapters (and there are normally two coordinating lead authors per Chapter: one from a
developing country and the other from a developed country). The lead authors work in teams to
produce content. They are often supported by contributing authors who provide more technical
information when needed.

Summaries for policymakers are checked‐line by line‐by governmental representatives and the
evidence shows they have been amended to support the political agenda.

The IPCC states:

Review is an essential part of the IPCC process to ensure objective and complete assessment of the current
information. The circulation process among peer and government experts is very wide with hundreds of scientist
checking the soundness of the information contained in the papers.

The IPCC website continues that:

“Differing viewpoints existing within the scientific community are reflected in the IPCC reports” and that
"comprehensiveness, objectivity, openness and transparency: these are the principles governing the IPCC work.

But in truth, Chapter 9 of the 2007 IPCC report, which is relied upon as the justification for
expensive mitigation, is not based on the consensus claimed but can be traced to a group of less
than 52 people, many of them climate modellers, who routinely work together and peer group

review each other’s work .
In July 2005, The House of Lords, “Select Committee on Economic Affairs”, which heard extensive evidence from
both sides of the Global Warming debate, described the closed, exclusive IPCC group as a "monoculture" and
questioned its distortion of scientific findings by political diktat.

8.2.2.4 Reaction to Errors

There is increasing concern that a relentless political force has directed the IPCC. For example in
January 2010, the British Government wrote to the IPCC urging it to make its procedures “more
rigorous” to avoid further “mistakes”. Although the “mistakes” were not catalogued, they
included the false claims that the Himalayan glaciers will disappear by 2035; that the Amazon
Rainforests are rapidly vanishing; that the severity of storms, tempests and floods has increased
and that warming spreads deadly vector‐borne diseases. The fact is, these were not “mistakes”
but the manifestation of a fanatical zeal by the IPCC to “sex up” the Global Warming dossier.

Notwithstanding that these “mistakes” (which were all one way and support the scary story)
should have caused some rethinking , Edward Samuel Miliband – the then UK’s Secretary of State
