A climate change study that projected a 2.4 degree Celsius increase in temperature and massive worldwide food shortages in the next decade was seriously flawed, scientists said Wednesday.I just love this part:
Mandia described the mishap as an "honest and common mistake," but said the matter would certainly give fuel to skeptics of humans' role in climate change.
"More alarmism," said Mandia. "Don't get me wrong. We are headed to 2.4, it is just not going to happen in 2020."
Many people do not understand the cumulative effect of carbon emissions and how they impact climate change, Mandia said.I actually guessed the gist of it, if not the actual words. It's just like they say every time they are caught: yes, we were wrong this time too, but we're actually right in the long run, and anyone who doesn't believe us is a crackpot/alarmist/conspiracy theorist/warming denier etc etc."
