Proceeding contribution from Lord Tyrie (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 28 October 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Climate Change Bill [Lords].


Climate Change Bill [Lords]

Professor von Storch, who is probably Germany's leading climate scientist, undertook that survey. Unfortunately, it has not been given a wide enough circulation. That same survey showed that one third of climate scientists did not believe that the lion's share of recently observed warming was anthropogenic in nature. Is the hon. Gentleman aware that a significant proportion of IPCC scientists have resigned in disgust because their views have not been reflected in the reports? They include some of the world's leading climate scientists, such as Professor Richard Lindzen, who has said that"““only the most senior scientists today can stand up against this alarmist gale””."
