IPCC Report: The IPCC was to never make recommendations that would constrict growth
“"US support was probably critical to IPCC’s establishment. And why did the US government support it? Assistant Undersecretary of State Bill Nitze wrote to me a few years later saying that our group’s activities played a significant role. Among other motivations, the US government saw the creation of the IPCC as a way to prevent the activism stimulated by my colleagues and me from controlling the policy agenda."
"I suspect that the Reagan Administration believed that, in contrast to our group, most scientists were not activists, and would take years to reach any conclusion on the magnitude of the threat. Even if they did, they probably would fail to express it in plain English. The US government must have been quite surprised when IPCC issued its first assessment at the end of 1990, stating clearly that human activity was likely to produce an unprecedented warming."

The IPCC was designed to fail, part of their mandate it to not make recommendations that would constrict growth”

IPCC Report: Viona van der Schoot \ Arctic news:
“Please, does anyone have the correct article about the real situation on global warming/the IPCC report? I'm getting confused here... Is it an increase of 1.5 or 2 or 3 degrees in this following decade? What is the best article you could find?”
Reader comment 1
“As usual the imminent danger and ongoing habitat 6th extinction is minimized, exponential changes happening right now with methane releases in Siberia and Alaska and loss of global dimming due to COVID lockdowns are not even mentioned. IPCC can’t panic the masses.
Truth is that In 5 years or less we’ll lose the arctic ice and the world capacity to produce grains industrially , while wildfires and ocean acidification would reduce breathable oxygen, thus furthering ecosystem collapse.
Exponential self reinforcing feedback loops are ongoing. Right now methane plumes from permafrost are visible in the satellite pictures.
What “next century”? Industrial civilization collapse is baked in the next 5-10 years and the 6th extinction is ongoing.””
Reader Comment 2:
“Instead of Global Warming titles , where content specificity and legitimacy gets reduced like program managers censoring political correctness for commercial sponsors in media (since most research entities aren’t divested from corporate private profit schemes ), try instead searching by a new title The Thermohaline Effect
ma’am
The thermohaline effect is what you must study in its uncorrupted pdf form from research is what I recommend
It was announced in an AMEG letter in 2011 I read inside a Fortune 500 private forum
It was a warning letter from scientists at the poles both north and south to world leaders
Read AMEG researchers pdf s and their formal letters to world leaders
I would contact AMEG member s from 2011 and now to compare their peer reviews uncorrupted by political leaders and business leaders”

IPCC Report: Sam Carana \ Arctic News:
“IPCC REPORT: BASELINE STRUGGLE
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has just released a new report, the Working Group I contribution to the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6). When reading the report, the question comes up: Is the IPCC seeking to downplay the dire situation we're in, again? One of the first issues that comes up is the baseline. The IPCC selects 1850–1900 as a baseline, as it did before (in SR1.5). This isn't pre-industrial. The Paris Agreement calls for pre-industrial as a base.
During 1850 to 1900, more livestock, forest clearing and wood burning resulted in growth in emissions of black carbon, brown carbon, dust, methane and carbon monoxide, which all can temporarily drive up temperatures. Additionally, there was little impact yet of the sulfur aerosols associated with increased fossil fuel burning from 1900. Trends drawn from this base can therefore look flatter than they would have looked if drawn from a genuinely pre-industrial base, or even from the early 1900s as base. The IPCC appears to say that there is only a 50% chance that 1.5°C will be crossed by 2030. Is this a deliberate effort to create the perception that there was enough carbon budget left to be divided among polluters, to let them comfortably keep adding further pollution for another decade or more?
Instead, the IPCC could have concluded that there hasn't been a carbon budget for a long time and that there are indications that the 1.5°C threshold has long been crossed. When calculating the temperature rise through 2020 and going back one century, NASA data show a 1.29°C rise from 1920, which is a conservative figure, i.e. 0.1°C can be added to translate NASA's sea surface temperatures into ocean air temperatures and another 0.1°C can be added for higher polar anomalies. So, that already brings the temperature rise up to about 1.5°C and this isn't the full rise from pre-industrial by a long shot.
The IPCC does mention that from 1750 to 1850–1900 there was a global surface temperature rise of up to 0.3°C, but then excludes this rise, sticking to its selection of 1850-1900 as base. The IPCC also uses seasonally-biased data for the temperature rise before 1750, making it look as if temperatures didn't rise before 1750, whereas it makes sense to add a 0.29C rise for the period from 3480 BC to 1520, and a further 0.2°C for 1520 to 1750.
Adding up the different elements thus gives a total rise from pre-industrial that could be as high as 1.29°C + 0.1°C + 0.1°C + 0.3°C + 0.2°C + 0.29°C = 2.28°C.
