Climate change debate muddied by confusion and doubt, says David Suzuki
The UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has become "ultra conservative" and contaminated by corporate interests, environmentalist David Suzuki says.

Dr Suzuki, who is visiting Australia, said the IPCC generates important information but "the enormous pollution of the communications sphere has rendered it far less effective" than at its inception almost a quarter of a century ago.

"The whole sector of public dialogue has been totally contaminated, deliberately, by the corporate sector," Dr Suzuki said. "The whole purpose is to sow confusion and doubt, and it's worked."
