Proven by thousands of temperature datasets, the earth’s climate fluctuated cyclically in the past, and there’s an overwhelming body of evidence showing a close correlation withand other powerful natural factors. If the IPCC had truly examined past temperature developments and compared them to solar data, they’d have seen there is something remarkable there.

Yet in the IPCC AR5, Working Group 1 takes only a cursory look at solar activity and its possible impacts on climate in IPCC AR5 before simply dismissing the sun altogether. The Earth’s sole supplier of energy, the sun, and all its dynamism, in fact gets only a couple of pages in a 2200-page report, about 0.1%. That alone is a monumental scandal.

What follows is a list of papers I found in just a few hours that the IPCC should have taken a much closer look at instead of just dismissing. The list of course is not complete.

An excellent resource that really speeded things up was the site:

Popular Technology.net

Popular technology is actually a list of 1100 papers that the IPCC wishes did not exist.

For some of the papers I’ve included links to additional information and some important quotes. Unfortunately I was not able to do this for every paper as time is limited.

Because of this gross negligence/incompetence on the IPCC’s part, the AR5 fifth is at best a woefully incomplete work and thus has reached a faulty conclusion.
