Draft of IPCC 2013 Report Already Circulating
First time accepted submitter iggymanz writes "More precise modeling has changed some long term climate predictions: sea levels to rise almost a meter more than present over the next century, but past dire warnings of stronger storms or more frequent droughts won't pan out. Instead there will be less strong storms, but peak winds in the tropics might be slightly higher. Temperature rise of global average will be about 3 degree C total, including the 1 degree C rise over the 20th century. In places where precipitation is frequent, it will become even more frequent; in arid areas, the tendency will be to become even drier. Some new arid areas are expected to appear in the south of N. America, South Africa and Mediterranean countries. Overall, hardly a doomsday scenario."
It is more apocalyptic than ever before. And I betya that the IPCC 2014 is even more horrendous!
When will it become so silly that even the most hard-core greenies cant take it serious anymore? The earth has been much warmer and much cooler than these day's, the difference is that now we are here with a lot. That is correlation, not causation...
For those who have some difficulties telling them apart, go and do a statistics class. For you who already did that; here is an obligatory xkcd reference...

It was a scheme to transfer wealth from the weak and helpless First World to the almighty and influential Third World. Too bad it didn't actually work 'cause nobody gave a shit... If only those meddly kids and their dog hadn't intervened!!! Well, back to the Evil Plan drawing board...
Also, your mom says you forgot to take your meds, again. Remember the incident with the tinfoil? We don't want another "tinfoil incident", do we?
