Of course, these scientist live and die by grant money, the temptation to lie I assume can be strong:

"Dr Pacharui has also been accused of using the error to win grants worth hundreds of thousands of pounds."

[yeahwho]

Mr Bagla said he had informed Dr Pachauri that Graham Cogley, a professor at Ontario Trent University and a leading glaciologist, had dismissed the 2035 date as being wrong by at least 300 years. Professor Cogley believed the IPCC had misread the date in a 1996 report which said the glaciers could melt significantly by 2350.

So now we can relax until 2350. whew! that was a close one! I think I'll go get some ice cream.

Ted Danson said we only had 10 years to save the oceans back in the 1980s...I fear we are too late :rolleyes:
