In order to extend the impact and reach of his book and to update its content, he published Climate Newsletters<\/em> (since 2018). Newsletter n\u00b015<\/em>\u00a0 has been translated into English now; for n\u00b01 to n\u00b014 in French<\/em>, see:<\/p>\n

In 1995, the IPCC’s Assessment Report<\/em> 2 (AR2) concluded that the warming at the end of the 20th century could not be attributed to greenhouse gases. But after the final version of the chapter on \u00ab\u00a0causality and attribution\u00a0\u00bb was released, Ben Santer, its main author, redacted the chapter behind the backs of its editors and reversed the conclusion: he attributed the warming to CO2 and made it the official position of the IPCC. The operation had to be agreed upon, since in 1999 the IPCC introduced a directive recommending that the Scientific Report be adapted to the Summary for policymakers<\/em>, i.e. governments. This political stranglehold is confirmed by the confession of a repentant activist, Michael Shellenberger, who, in Apocalypse Never<\/em>, recounts how economist Richard Tol became involved in the work of the IPCC, before throwing in the towel because of the prevailing alarmism. You\u00a0 will find further confirmation in Patrick Moore’s\u00a0Confession of a Greenpeace Dropout.\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
