feedbacks weren't included [in previous IPCC

But for those of us who follow Hansen, Spratt, Monbiot, and many others in the tail of a much more serious
climate change story: non-linear, with positive
feedbacks, tipping points, time lags and thresholds, we need a much more robust and focused scientific consensus now, without waiting years for the next IPCC
reports, in time to win the crucial 08 election because the solution must be now, global and America must be a leader.

For example, the absence from AR5 of last January's Ramanathan paper indicating a large and very significant Albedo Loss
feedback forcing can not be rectified until about 2019 under the current system of periodic IPCC
reports advising the UNFCCC as to the
climate predicament.
However, these
feedbacks are part of the real
climate system, as recognized in the IPCC's most recent Assessment
Report (the AR - 5).

The presence of
feedback effects and tipping points calls into question some of the most fundamental assumptions of
climate change negotiations, including the belief that we can «overshoot» to, say, 550 ppm and then work back to 450 ppm (the path advocated in the Stern and Garnaut
reports), that greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere can be stabilised at some level, and the belief that we can adapt to some given degree of warming.
The «Physical Science»
report finds that negative
feedbacks in the
climate system reduce the model model derived temperature sensitivity to values an order of magnitude smaller.
Webb et al (2013)[ix], who examined the origin of differences in
climate sensitivity, forcing and
feedback in the previous generation of
climate models,
reported that they «do not find any clear relationships between present day biases and forcings or
feedbacks across the AR4 ensemble».
and add up to 1.5 °F to warming in 2100 by itself, «Participating modeling teams have completed their
climate projections in support of the [IPCC's] Fifth Assessment
Report, but these projections do not include the permafrost carbon
feedback.»

It is intellectually dishonest to devote several pages to cherry - picking studies that disagree with the IPCC consensus on net health effects because you don't like its scientific conclusion, while then devoting several pages to hiding behind [a misstatement of] the U.N. consensus on sea level rise because you know a lot reasonable people think the U.N. wildly underestimated the upper end of the range and you want to attack Al Gore for worrying about 20 - foot sea level rise.On this blog, I have tried to be clear what I believe with my earlier three - part series: Since sea level, arctic ice, and most other
climate change indicators have been changing faster than most IPCC models projected and since the IPCC neglects key amplifying carbon cycle
feedbacks, the IPCC
reports almost certainly underestimate future
climate impacts.
In particular: i) the emphasis on reconstructions of historical temperature records; ii) the over-sensitivity of
climate models; iii) the exaggeration of positive
feedback mechanisms and the opposite with respect to negative
feedbacks; iv) the over-statement of second and Nth - order effects of warming on natural processes and society as «impacts»; v) the IPCC
reports are not written exclusively by scientists, but in the case of WGII and WGIII especially, are, as has been discovered — by sceptics — written by academics from other disciplines, often without any remarkable expertise, and by activists, with particular agendas.
Although it is
reported that there are some relationships between the present states of cloud (e.g. Williams and Webb 2008, Yokohata et al. 2010) or water vapour (Sherwood et al. 2010) and
climate feedback processes, it is not straightforward to relate the reliability of the present behavior and the
climate sensitivity as discussed in Sect. 2.3.
The NIPCC
report exaggerates the uncertainty in
climate science, but seems to put a lot of faith in elusive and hardly quantified processes such as natural aerosol
feedbacks coming to our rescue.

Report, WWF says that the effects of the warming of the Arctic will be worse than previously prediced on everything from farming to forestry worldwide.
The model studies plus the theory of chemical
feedbacks in the CH4 - CO-OH system (Prather, 1994) firmly established that the atmospheric lifetime of a perturbation (and hence
climate impact and GWP) of CH4 emissions was about 50 % greater than
reported in the FAR.
Is it or is it not that case that the author's of the IPCC

climate science and the divine negative
feedback theory?
