They’ve decided that they are going to spin away the notion in any way they can
(UK Guardian) The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has corrected a controversial claim that small amounts of global warming could have overall positive economic impacts, after I pointed out that it was based on inaccurate information.
The final version of the IPCC’s report on Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability was published without fanfare on the web this week, including a chapter on Key Economic Sectors and Services.
The final draft of the chapter, which was published in April, featured a section on the aggregate economic impacts of climate change, containing the statement: “Climate change may be beneficial for moderate climate change but turn negative for greater warming.â€
But the version published this week omits the statement because it was based on faulty data.
You know, faulty data like history and reality. These people are shameless, and you had to know they would manufacture a “reason” to remove the phrase. Humanity has done better during Holcombe warm periods than Holcombe cool periods. This is all about politics, not science.
