Wolfgang BS: Where's the Global Warming (1541* d) RE: BS: Where's the Global Warming 19 Jan 10


AN IPCC WARNING that climate change will melt most of the Himalayan glaciers by 2035 is likely to be retracted after a series of scientific blunders by the United Nations body that issued it.

That prediction was based on a rough estimate of a Russian glacier scientist, Vladimir Kotlyakov, who in 1996 had written in a paper that the Himalaya glaciers might shrink to a fifth of their present volume by

2350.

Graham Cogley is the one who has found out about this hard to believe blunder because he just couldn't believe the 2035 datum knowing how thick the Himalaya ice is now.
