New Global Warming Scandal: ‘Consensus’ on Sun is One Expert

New global warming data fraud scandal seems to show a faked ‘consensus’ of the impact of solar forcing on Earth’s climate based on one finding.

A staggering new finding seems to mire the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in global warming scandal every bit as devastating as Climategate.

The news broke June 24, 2010 on a Czech climate skeptic blog, Klimaskeptik.cz, that calls the latest global warming scandal, “Judithgate.”

Roughly translated into English the site reveals that the The IPCC relied on evidence supplied by just only one Solar Physicist, Judith Lean, to create their “consensus that solar influence upon the climate was minimal.

Judithgate Scandal Goes Viral

The story has going viral on climate skeptic websites and is reported on a leading blog, ‘Climate Realists’ as ,’IPCC “Consensus” on Solar Influence was Only One Solar Physicist who Agreed with Her Own Paper.’

Apparently, objections were raised to the IPCC by the Norwegian Government as early as the draft version in the preliminary phases of the IPCC’s draft of their Fourth Report of 2007, which won the organization the Nobel Peace Prize.

A total of six further peer-reviewed papers were dismissed by the IPCC for inclusion. At least one of the papers, by leading solar expert Hans Svensmark totally contradicted the IPCC’s conclusions that the Sun was not a key player in climate change.

Norwegian Government Snubbed By ‘Politicized’ IPCC

Citing evidence from the IPCC’s Fourth Report (AR4) second draft comments objections to the creation of a faked consensus among scientists was raised by scientitic representatives from the Norwegian Government which spotted the fraud.

Their noted objection reads: “I would encourage the IPCC to [re-]consider having only one solar physicist on the lead author team of such an important chapter. In particular since the conclusion of this section about solar forcing hangs on one single paper in which J. Lean is a coauthor. I find that this paper, which certainly can be correct, is given too much weight.”

The IPCC dismissed the objections of the Norwegian government outright stating that any such changes would be “impractical.”

“Scandalous Re-writing” of Climate Data Records

The Czech blog outraged at what it sees as apparent cherry-picking to fit a pre-determined political view to blame global warming on man-made emissions of carbon dioxide, fumed, “Judith Lean, along with Claus Frohlich, are responsible for the scandalous rewriting of graphs of solar activity.”

Backed up by evidence obtained from the Harvard University Library, it may be proven that satellite measurements between 1986 and 96 do indicate that Judith Lean and Claus Frohlich (authors of the single study noted above) “manipulated” their data.

More Woe For Beleagured IPCC Chairman, Pachauri

The article asserts that there was also further deliberate intent committed by the IPCC to stifle objections raised by other international climate experts, “People who were in charge of the satellites and created the original graphs (the world’s best astrophysics: Doug Hoyt, Richard C. Willson), protested in vain against such manipulation.”

The head of the IPCC, Rajendra Pachauri, had already admitted to similar such “errors” in the Glaciergate scandal but has repeatedly refused to resign, as reported in the India Times. The UN has been conducting it’s own internal investigations but has not divulged its findings to the public.
