The United Nations’ organization on climate change is no longer reliable. That’s the determination of the second most populous nation on Earth after a slew of evidence came to light that the organization had made up data and knowingly pushed bogus claims.

India, which has an estimated population of 1.15 billion, is forming its own panel to investigate climate change and determine if any real risk exists. The news comes as a major blow to the UN’s scandal-ridden Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

The move is a significant snub to both the IPCC and Dr Pachauri as he battles to defend his reputation following the revelation that his most recent climate change report included false claims that most of the Himalayan glaciers would melt away by 2035. Scientists believe it could take more than 300 years for the glaciers to disappear.

The body and its chairman have faced growing criticism ever since as questions have been raised on the credibility of their work and the rigour with which climate change claims are assessed.

Yeah, getting your assessment of glacial melting wrong by several hundred years seems quite serious. And as we learned recently, the panel had claimed that 40% of the rainforest would be eliminated by global warming in coming years. Turns out that assessment was based on claims by global warming activists with no scientific background. So the IPCC’s credibility has been hurting recently.

All of this comes after emails from the prominent Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia were leaked, showing that scientists were lying to the global community and couldn’t actually find ongoing global warming. The scientists talked about “hiding the decline”, manipulating data to show warming, and outright lying to people.

And yet global warming alarmists still label anyone who questions their conclusions “flat-Earthers” or just “deniers”. Amazing.
