The IPCC is controlled by political hacks who override the scientists with a predetermined agenda. Calling it science is a fraud upon the public. Real scientists and critics are kicked out of the process.
As scientific arguments for greenhouse gasses break down, the promoters of the cause revert to the IPCC as their undisputed authority on the subject. There is no validity in replacing science with authority. Science requires totally objective evaluation, constantly, all the time. Replacing that process with ignorant political hacks is how fraud is produced, not how science is produced.
But the IPCC is controlled by political hacks who reshape the science for their agenda. There is no place in science for arbitrary authorityleast of all a subject as complex as climate change. Alexander Cockburn, editor of Counterpunch, is a liberal journalist who describes the position of the critics fairly well. He says, "To identify either the government-funded climate modelers or their political shock troops, the IPCC's panelists, with scientific rigor and objectivity is as unrealistic as detecting the same attributes in a craniologist financed by Lombroso studying a murderer's head in a nineteenth-century prison for the criminally insane." On another page, he adds, "Professor Fredrik Seitz, former chairman of the American Science Academy, wrote in the Wall Street Journal already the 12th of June 1996 about a major deception on global warming: "I have never before witnessed a more disturbing corruption of the peer-review process than the events that led to this IPCC report."
