Rajendra Pachauri: Media went gaga over greenhouse guru | NJ.com
Though I consider myself a cynic, I confess even I was shocked when I found out that the global-warming guru is a mere railway engineer. I learned that when I was speaking recently to a scientist skeptical of climate-change alarmism, Princeton physicist William Happer.Cyclone climate link rejected | The Australian
“I think the best way to restore the credibility of the IPCC is to have some resignations.” said Happer. “Someone has to resign and it has to be Pachauri.”

When I called [Don] Easterbrook the other day, he said there is evidence that the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere is decreasing, not increasing. And while the climatologists are dismissing the blizzards that keep hitting us here on the East Coast as anomalies, Easterbrook predicts we’d better get used to them.
“The next decade is going to be colder, no doubt about it,” he told me.
RESEARCH by hurricane scientists may force the UN climate panel to retract its claims that greenhouse gas emissions have caused an increase in the number of tropical storms.["Green" catfight!: Wind scam promoter labels solar scheme a "fraud"] | The Australian
Proposed windfarms across the country had been put on hold amid an investment strike caused by the commonwealth's controversial inclusion of solar panels in the scheme.Flashback: Green energy scheme 'a fraud' - National Rural News - Agribusiness and General - General - Stock & Land
The price of the certificates issued under the scheme has since crashed from $60 per MWh to about $35 because the heavily subsidised solar panels and heaters have distorted the market.
A lobbying campaign from the wind industry, which hit its peak when AGL boss Michael Fraser labelled the scheme a "fraud", finally caused the Rudd government to buckle last week.
Climate Change Minister Penny Wong announced that domestic solar panels and water heaters would be stripped out of the large-scale renewable market, a move the wind industry says will drive up the price of renewable certificates and hence the viability of projects.
[comment] AGL and their wind farms are the biggest fraud around. Why should consumers subsidise them? they provide a trickle of intermittant power, basically relying on luck. If they need greed oh sorry green certificates to be viable then what does that say? Wind power is only supported by a few silly city greens who dont care if we have blackouts, anyone with knowledge of generating systems would dismiss it as a joke
