New revelations continue to call into question climate panel’s work
Dr. Pachauri responded that the climate body was simply too busy to deal with the issue leading up to Copenhagen. “We were working round the clock with several things that had to be done in Copenhagen,” he said.

The climate chief defended the IPCC’s work insisting it is open and honest. “So I think this presumption on your part or on the part of any others is totally wrong. We are certainly never - and I can say this categorically - ever going to do anything other than what is truthful and what upholds the veracity of science,” Pachauri said.

There seems to be something about climate policy that encourages senators to take positions that are logically impossible. In the latest instance, Sen. Ben Nelson (D-NE) has now managed to simultaneously oppose and support a carbon command-and-control regime.

Whether or not this new scrutiny of the IPCC will be conclusive remains to be seen, but this was somewhat inevitable. Too much speculation about the climate story caused a bubble. World leaders, politicians, activists have sought to define themselves by this organisation and the stories it produces. Now the bubble, while not yet burst, is getting a damn good poke. Our view is that the IPCC and the climate agenda will no longer serve as a cloak of ‘ethical’ invisibility, to conceal quite so many of the cracks in today’s politics. No more fig-leaves for politicians such as Ed Miliband to hide his shame behind. (

I'm quite surprised that no one has asked where Pachauri found the time to write this book of his. Surely if he has all these important advisory bodies and these burning the midnight oil IPCC meetings he's too busy to be writing books.
