The United Nations has announced an independent board of scientists will be appointed to review the workings of the world’s top climate science panel, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The IPCC has come under fire from skeptics of global warming after some mistakes were found in its 3,000-page report from 2007. Meanwhile, Nobel Peace Prize winner Al Gore has responded to global warming skeptics. In an op-ed published in the New York Times, Gore wrote, “I, for one, genuinely wish that the climate crisis were an illusion. But unfortunately, the reality of the danger we are courting has not been changed by the discovery of at least two mistakes in the thousands of pages of careful scientific work over the last 22 years by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.”
