IPCC Climate Change Technical Summary

https://www.ipcc.ch/site/assets/uploads/sites/2/2018/12/SR15_TS_High_Res.pdf

This paper is a curious representation of the credibility crisis that has infested mainstream science.  Contained within this technical summary is not one line of science that I could find.  There was no description of the methodology used to arrive at the results, no description of the measurements taken, no assessment of the biases inherent in the methodology or any assumptions made to arrive at the results, no procedure that would allow this report to be reproduced independently.

It seems to me that they do not want this report to be reproduced, and that they merely wish to cry foul and harp on their particular view of the world in order to peddle influence and force people to adhere to their narrow view of what is happening.

This is not science.  This is political dogma wrapped in a scientific robe.  Congratulations, environmentalists, you have destroyed science.
