Washington - Rapidly developing countries including China and India will have to be part of any global deal on cutting greenhouse-gas emissions that cause climate change, according to a report released Wednesday by a group of former world and business leaders. The Global Leadership for Climate Action (GLCA) warned that the planet may have already passed the "threshold" for avoiding some of the most dangerous consequences of global warming. Countries around the world will now be forced to adapt to "inevitable" changes weather.I can't help but notice that they failed to tell us specifically what evidence they're talking about.
"Even in the past six months, the scientific evidence is becoming clearer that climate change is occurring at a faster pace than previously thought," read the report, compiled after a February meeting of the influential group in Monaco. "This underscores the urgency of action to reduce emissions."

Hmm,
A glance at the Members and Senior Advisors of the GLCA reveals such renowned scientists as Ted Turner, George Soros (Founder) and R.K. Pachauri (Chairman, Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change - Senior Advisor).
A very independent bunch, then.
