Page "Fred Singer" Paragraph 33

In 1995 the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change ( IPCC ) issued a report reflecting the scientific consensus that the balance of evidence suggests there is a discernible human influence on global climate.

Singer responded with a letter to Science saying the IPCC report had presented material selectively.

He wrote: " the Summary does not even mention the existence of 18 years of weather satellite data that show a slight global cooling trend, contradicting all theoretical models of climate warming.

" Scheuering writes that Singer acknowledges the surface thermometers from weather stations show warming, but he argues that the satellites provide better data because their measurements cover pole to pole.
