Brown evidently saw this, and sent a report issued by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which regularly drafts political reports based on climate science.
Watts did say that Carson is not a “climate denier”, saying he preferred “climate questioner”.
In a tweet published later in the week, Gov. Jerry Brown (D) posted a picture of this letter sent to the retired neurosurgeon. “Gimme a break”.
What is clear is that the alarmist predictions on which politicians like Brown have based their costly policies-such as a ridiculous claim that rising sea levels could force the relocation of LAX airport-have failed to materialize.
This got the attention of California Governor Jerry Brown, who is now trying to help his state survive an historic drought. The Democratic governor asked him to use his substantial intelligence for reviewing the material and said that climate change is much larger than politics. “This report assessed over 30,000 scientific papers and was written by more than 800 scientists, representing 80 countries around the world, who definitively concluded that: “…human influence on the climate system is growing, with impacts observed across all continents and oceans”. Among other conclusions, man activity accounts for 95 percent of the factors at play in driving climate change.
The United Nations Environment Program and the World Meteorological Organization has created IPCC.
The campaign office of Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson did not release any comments.
