The latest IPCC Report on Global Warming has reduced the predicted temperature increase. It is interesting that the MSM reports in detail the remarks of those scientists who think the latest IPCC predictions of global warming destruction of civilization are not dire enough. The MSM had and has no interest in reporting the views of those other scientists who think the IPCC predictions are too extreme. The MSM fails to report that the reason the IPCC has reduced the predictions of temperature increase and sea level increases is because their earlier predictions have not been coming true. It is curious to me that the MSM has missed this altogether. They seem unaware that the Global Circulation Models predict a monotonically increasing Earth temperature of significant magnitude, yet there has been no increase since 1998. And they have forgotten the predictions made back in the early 1990's that we would have fried by now. The MSM also seems to have learned nothing from the example of other famous doomsayers like the Club of Rome's "Limits to Growth" work that predicted our natural resources would be depleted by the year 2000, or Paul Ehrlich's famous prediction that we would all starve to death in the 1980's. I find it interesting that politicians are now beginning to take the action Al Gore and the other carbon dioxide doomsayers desire just as evidence and scientific inquiry are showing the IPCC's predictions to be erroneous.
