Climate change

Grassyknollington deleted the following paragraph and link:

In November 2004, IPN released a report claiming that "climate change is 'a myth', sea levels are not rising and Britain's chief scientist is 'an embarrassment' for believing catastrophe is inevitable." It called "the science warning of an environmental disaster caused by climate change ... 'fatally flawed'" and contested predictions that the global sea level would increase by a meter over the next century, saying that "sea level rises will reach a maximum of just 20cms." Moreover, the report listed some benefits of global warming, including "increasing fish stocks in the north Atlantic and reducing the incidence of temperature-related deaths among vulnerable people." The British newspaper The Guardian claimed that IPN had received $50,000 from ExxonMobil, which "list[ed] the donation as part of its 'climate change outreach' programme." [1]

George Monbiot: Pundits who contest climate change should tell us who is paying them (The Guardian, 26 September 2006)

I've re-inserted the information. If you want to delete this, please state your reasons. —Babelfisch 06:23, 11 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
