Climate Change Authority Admits Mistake

Climate Change Authority Admits Mistake: "The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has admitted that its alarming conclusions -- that glaciers in the Himalayas could be gone 25 years from now, eliminating a primary source of water for hundreds of millions of people -- is largely unsubstantiated, based on news reports rather than published, peer-reviewed scientific studies.

The mistake has called into question the credibility of the IPCC, which has been considered an authoritative source for information about climate change. (Source: http://www.technologyreview.com/business/24389/)"
