Every five years the IPCC publishes its current status report on the state of the climate. And every five years governments come together to write their own scary version:
UN researchers will publish their strongest statement to date on the science of climate change.
The report is likely to detail significant changes in the world’s oceans, ice caps and land over the coming decades.
The report, due on Monday, was prepared by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
It will be their first global assessment of the science of global warming since 2013.
The upcoming Policy Makers Summary is expected to be an important document for world leaders when they meet in November.
After two weeks of virtual negotiations between scientists and representatives of 195 governments, the IPCC will begin the first part of a tripartite assessment of the causes, effects and solutions of climate change.
It is the presence of these government officials that sets the IPCC apart from other scientific bodies. Once the report is approved in agreement with the governments, they effectively take responsibility for it.
A short, 40-page summary for policy makers dealing with physical science will be released on Monday.
It may be brief, but the new report is expected to be powerful.
“We have seen climate change evolve over a few months and even years; it is really staring us in the face, ”said Dr. Heleen de Coninck from the Technical University of Eindhoven in the Netherlands, who is a coordinating lead author of the IPCC Working Group III.
“It really shows what the impact will be, and that’s just the beginning. I think what this report will add is a big update on the state of the art of what temperature rise we are seeing – and what are the physical effects? “
A key question in the new summary will be related to the temperature target of 1.5 ° C. The climate summit in the French capital Paris in 2015 obliged the nations to limit the rise in global temperature compared to pre-industrial times to no more than 1.5 degrees.

The fact that governments “negotiate” tells us all we need to know. Your summary for policy makers will not be an objective, independent scientific report, but a political statement.
This will be the sixth report, and each previous one has used increasingly frightening language to increase the propaganda. The gullible Western media devour everything, of course, although none of their apocalyptic warnings have come true. Meanwhile, the rest of the world pays lip service, demands more and more blood money and continues as usual.
Not for the first time McGrath shows how poorly he understands the Paris Agreement. Industrial times to a maximum of 1.5 degrees. “
It did nothing of the sort. While it aimed to keep the temperature rise below 2 ° C and make efforts to limit it to 1.5 ° C, the national pledges actually made in Paris meant emissions would rise relentlessly, as they naturally did . The agreement did not oblige anyone to limit the increase.
We have to wait and see the report, but I have no doubt that it will contain the usual threats such as melting ice caps, sea levels, storms, floods, cyclones, droughts, famines and forest fires. All of this is going to get a lot worse in the years to come, it will say, although there is no actual evidence to support it. When the full scientific report is finally published, it will all be obvious.
Meanwhile, global temperatures after the 2015/16 El Nino record are no higher than they were two decades ago. Isn’t it strange that things like this year’s floods in Germany are due to global warming when there hasn’t been one for twenty years!
