Climate Change Act 2008 (2020 Target, Credit Limit and Definitions) Order 2009

My Lords, I do not think I can be held responsible for those events. All I can say is that the IPCC’s recent report was written by 690 named scientists and reviewed by another 622. In total, the IPCC’s latest assessment was written by more than 1,250 authors from more than 130 countries and reviewed by an additional 2,500 experts over six years. Objectivity is ensured by the broad and open review process.
