The Glaciologist gentle man has not denied the interview.For that matter, what took him so long to come out in the open, when the Govt. started countering UN’s stand on this issue since last year?Again, most of the claims -Eco system will collapse,Avian Flu,Cockroach flu ,studying sun during solar eclipse as if they are going to announce some earth shattering news(in fact the whole scientific community went over board in 1980 during total Solar eclipse in India);not a bit of additional information on Sun since 1966,when I came out of school)-what are they worth?
Is there some one ,some scientist who shall definitely declare on these subjects with out ifs and buts?
The controversy over the IPCC observations on melting of Himalayan glaciers by 2035 took a new turn with glaciologist Syed Hasnain
contending that he has never mentioned the time in his research papers which the UN body had included in its climate change report.
He also said that he was not even consulted by the IPCC for including his research papers in the report.
“I am unnecessarily being dragged into the controversy. The IPCC did not even consult me or ask me for my research papers for inclusion in the fourth assessment report,” Hasnain, a Fellow with The Energy and Resources Institute, said.
The Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), headed by Rajendra K Pachauri, has triggered a controversy with claims that the Himalayan glaciers would disappear by 2035 due to global warming.
