El Calentamiento global por CO2 es una estafa. Un miembro del IPCC,
Vincent Gray, denuncia en un informe que los datos científicos son
manipulados. De hecho, los informes son modificados para eliminar
cualquier evidencia de que el calentamiento se debe a procesos
naturales.


    El “prestigioso” documental de Al Gore sobre el supuesto cambio
climático que sufre el planeta, titulado Una Verdad Incómoda, podría
servir perfectamente para describir los entresijos de corruptelas y
falsedades científicas que subyacen en el seno del IPCC.

    El Panel Intergubernamental constituye el principal grupo de
expertos que, bajo el paraguas de la ONU, desarrolla los informes
climáticos que sirven de referencia a administraciones públicas y
grupos ecologistas para mantener, ante la opinión pública
internacional, que el mundo se enfrenta a un calentamiento global de
dimensiones catastróficas debido a la emisión de gases de efecto
invernadero (GEI). Y ello, cómo no, por culpa del ser humano y del
desarrollo económico.

    Sin embargo, el origen antropogénico (es decir, causado por el
hombre) del cambio climático no sólo es puesto en duda por un pequeño
e irrelevante número de pseudocientíficos escépticos, que actuán bajo
la tutela y servidumbre de las grandes petroleras, tal y como suelen
argumentar los defensores del calentamiento global.

    El número de expertos y climatólogos que cuestiona la validez de
dicha teoría es cada vez mayor. De hecho, incluso alguno de los
miembros que han formado parte del prestigioso IPCC (ganador del
premio Nobel de la Paz en 2007) denuncia que el trabajo del IPCC es
“esencialmente corrupto” abogando, incluso, por su “abolición” o, al
menos, “reforma en profundidad”.


La cuestión no es trivial, ya que en esta ocasión es un miembro del
propio IPCC, Vincent Gray el que afirma abiertamente que el
calentamiento por CO2 es la mayor estafa a escala planetaria de la
humanidad.

Vincent Gray que, desde 1990, ha trabajado en el seno del IPCC, por lo
que conoce perfectamente su funcionamiento interno.

Así, en un reciente documento hecho público el pasado 11 de julio,
Gray desgrana los grandes mitos y “mentiras” presentes en el afamado
trabajo de este supuesto panel internacional de expertos en materia de
cambio climático.

Nos sumamos al Diario Libertad Digital para ofrecerles el informe que
pueden descargar aquí.

Así mismo, también el documento que Gray ya editó en 2007 :Desde el Exilio.

En esencia, Gray denuncia que este grupo de expertos carece de
independencia. El Panel está formado por funcionarios y burócratas,
así como por científicos que son seleccionados por los propios
gobiernos en función de su posicionamiento favorable a la tesis del
calentamiento global.

El objetivo basicamente siempre ha consistido en Tapar cualquier
evidencia contraria a la teoría del CO2.

De este modo, las opiniones contrarias a la tesis del CO2 como
causante del calentamiento han sido “eliminadas”, tal y como demuestra
Gray. Por último, el climatólogo pone en evidencia que el último
informe del IPCC (2007), tanto el Resumen para políticos como el
técnico, ha sido cocinadoexclusivamente por los representantes afines
a los gobiernos promotores de la tesis sobre el cambio climático.
