Sky is falling too

" Two years ago the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) issued a benchmark report that was claimed to incorporate the latest and most detailed research into the impact of global warming. A central claim was the world's glaciers were melting so fast that those in the Himalayas could vanish by 2035.

In the past few days the scientists behind the warning have admitted that it was based on a news story in the New Scientist, a popular science journal, published eight years before the IPCC's 2007 report.

It has also emerged that the New Scientist report was itself based on a short telephone interview with Syed Hasnain, a little-known Indian scientist then based at Jawaharlal Nehru University in Delhi.

Hasnain has since admitted that the claim was "speculation" and was not supported by any formal research..." - Timesonline

Like how my neighbourhood Aunty heard from her daughter B's son's girlfriend's help about Z's affairs, so Z's affairs must be true.

Sachu Kichu should head Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Trust me she has all the capacuties.
