The IPCC, of course, is the organization that was the co-recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize with Al Gore for its work on the “climate change” issue. The IPCC was also central in the “climategate” scandal.
And at 2:00am this morning, eastern time, House Republicans voted to end funding for the panel.
Just before 2 a.m. on February 19, the war on climate science showed its grip on the U.S.House of Representatives as it voted to eliminate U.S. funding for the Intergovernmental Panelon Climate Change. The Republican majority, on a mostly party-line vote of 244-179, went on record as essentially saying that it no longer wishes to have the IPCC prepare its comprehensive international climate science assessments.
A positive development. The IPCC has become the politicized tool of the global warming crowd who would seek bigger, more powerful government with “saving the environment” as the justification.
The IPCC isn’t about science. The IPCC is about political agendas, and the US taxpayers shouldn’t be on the hook for funding it.
