Title: US congress in process of killing the funding of IPCC???
Post by: Mika on March 03, 2011, 03:57:46 pm

I found this link that claims US Congress is killing the funding of IPCC:

http://www.climatesciencewatch.org/2011/02/19/house-votes-244-179-to-kill-u-s-funding-of-ipcc/

Is this real? There's no mention about this on the first Google results, so I suppose that the voting isn't yet done.

Could Americans check the validity of this?

EDIT: Thread title

Yes, I've heard this too elsewhere. About time. The IPCC has done what it was meant to do. Time to kill it off before it turns itself into a bureucratic monster that is more concerned with politics than with science. Perhaps it's already late for that, but not to kill it.
