"Scientist Resigns Over 'Alarmist' Tone of UN Climate-Change Report" "An author of a draft U.N. report on climate change says he has withdrawn from the project, describing it as "alarmist" and âapocalypticâ in its portrayal of the possible consequences... ...Tol explained that the first draft said the risks were manageable if âwe get our act together.â But this careful, measured tone âhas completely disappeared from the draft now, which is all about the impacts of climate change and the four horsemen of the apocalypse...â http://www.newsmaxworld.com/GlobalTalk/Climate-change-IPCC/2014/03/27/id/562248/ Sound familiar? Some were in agreement with others in this forum until said others just got too alarmist and successfully pushed those in some level of agreement away. Of course, I expect the author, Richard Tol, to be immediately discredited, both here and at the IPCC.
