Analysis of IPCC report
The Frozen Climate Views of the IPCC
The Clintel Foundation has published the book The Frozen Climate Views of the IPCC. It’s by far the most important work of its existence. In thirteen chapters we indicate per theme whether the IPCC has done its work well. In short, we conclude that the IPCC has made several serious mistakes.
