Presenting the IPCC For (Not Quite) Dummies!

By Ross Gelbspan
on

You don’t need to be a computer modeler to understand what the IPCC really is, how the peer-review process really works, and what standards inform the work of the international scientific body.

A new resource spells it all out – in plain language. The website, www.ipccfacts.org, has just been launched by the United Nations Foundation with help from Fenton Communications, to help de-mystify the process. It’s clear, simple, easy to navigate and thankfully not dumbed-down!

And it blows away scads of misrepresentations by skeptics who continue to characterize the Panel as a front for liberal, tree-hugging enviros.
