Andrew Revkin's attempt to smear skeptics detailed! | CO2sceptics
[Morano] Repeat: There are hundreds of factors influencing climate, the most discrediting thing is that the UN IPCC and the "mainstream" community has rejected that and instead "agreed" that it is CO2 that is the key driver. The "only CO2 can explain" hypothesis is what lacks "credibility" and your journalism training should sniff that one out, but your agenda appears to have overwhelmed you. Joe Romm would be proud.

Climate Scam Promoted as 2,000 Researchers Meet (Update1) - Bloomberg.com
“There are lots and lots of new data here that are telling us that the IPCC didn’t overestimate the problem; if anything it underestimated the problem,” Katherine Richardson, an organizer of the meeting and a professor of oceanography at the University of Copenhagen, said today in a telephone interview.

Data presented today at the meeting suggest greater melting of ice in Greenland and Antarctica will cause sea levels to rise at least 50 centimeters by 2100 and possibly more than a meter, conference organizers said today in a statement. The oceans are also warming 50 percent faster than researchers thought just two years ago, said Richardson.

“There’s not a lot of good news,” she said. “There’s absolutely no doubt that the predicted sea level rise for 2100 is certainly higher than what the IPCC predicted. The data don’t make the picture any prettier.”
CLIMATE CHANGE: "a deliberate attempt to influence policy"
...this week's climate science update involving experts from 80 countries is a deliberate attempt to influence policy, said conference organiser Katherine Richardson, a marine biologist at the University of Copenhagen.
