Pachauri: they’ve got it in for me!

By Wednesday December 23, 2009

The crux of his complaints are outlined here. Apparently he never gets paid for anything. It all goes to his institute. And he makes it sound as if he doesn’t get any money, ever, for food or water even. He”s going to “take action!”

    If we take a poster’s argument on another thread on the same topic ( http://tinyurl.com/yc8v5wh post #57), Al Gory is out to get him.

    Lefty loons don’t know where to hang on to anymore.

    #3 Chuck,

    “Pachauri was awarded an MS degree in Industrial Engineering from North Carolina State University, Raleigh, in 1972, as well as a joint Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering and Economics in 1974″

    People with a Ph.D are generally called doctor – maybe there aren’t many people who achieve that distinction in the back-woods where you come from.

    Dvorak cannot be so stupid as to think scientists have more financial interest in global warming policy than global industry corp. Can he?

    #4 – I asked because I didn’t know. My point, is that he has no more qualifications in climate science than I.

    I agree with John (#5) it’s generally better to only to refer to MDs as “Doctor”. In an emergency, most people would prefer an MD to an Engineer or Climatologist.

    #2 – Appreciate the link and support, but my point wasn’t so much that Al Gore wanted to get him, which is true as it was stated in NYT & Washington Post back in 2002. Al Gore went out publicly against him, saying Pachauri was making a lot of anti-american comments etc.. and that Exxon had pushed him into power blah blah blah. Al Gore had previously made Watson his right hand man and used him for several years witnessing in Congress about AGW etc..

    Seeing however that Pachauri was second in command after Robert Watson at the IPCC at the time and already buddy buddy with Al Gore – later pushing his agenda with Watson; I was more hinting that Bush, India and Exxon who got Pachauri the position at the IPCC (leaked documents showed this) were also in bed with Al Gore, Watson etc.. considering how things have conveniently followed each of their agendas towards one focal point. It was a convenient show to make him popular with developing nations to push the cap and trade agenda.

    Before anyone goes jumping at me, please read my supporting documents and facts for claiming this in my post that pedro refers to – if you actually digg a bit, the info you find on this guy is pretty horrifying and this is written by democratic liberal newspapers – NYT, Washington Post etc.. not conservative, Fox news – i don’t even think they have picked up on this. He is actually pro-vegetarianism and anti-meat, he wants to carbon tax meat production (check his presentation); meat production according to Pachauri and the IPCC make up 11% of human CO2 production.

    #9 Which makes it even worse for Lefty Loons to swallow. Their god Al Gory in bed with Dumbya.

    If they cannot come to terms that Messiah Obama is doing the same as Dumbya, imagine this blow.

    BTW, maybe we should call this guy Patchouli. At least it might smell better… or not.

    Well… he may be right, so let us see him take ‘actions’, legal or not. Juggling all these billions he has to be prepared for scrutiny, especially after the cheating his compadres “tricky-Phil” and “hokey stick-Michael” was caught doing…. and not to forget “poet-Al’s” multimedia, multichannel half truths. Follow the money is good idea. More should do as #9 ‘Serious’ has done; impressive investigative reporting. That should have been done by journalists a long time ago… Maybe we should remind the media that to draw lines between dots is a good idea… they may find something interesting.

    #19 – the article also points to another reason why no deal was possible: “Probably only about 50 or 60 people, including the heads of state, were in the room.”

    It’s simply not possible for a room of 50 or 60 people (even if 1 of them is the President) to make a deal about anything. Why was the Ethiopian President in the room? Are his diplomatic skills so sublime that we could not do without him?

    The G20 nations produce 90% of the carbon. If you think that CO2 causes climate change, then only a deal between the G20 nations will have any effect. And since China and India will simply never agree to any deal to cut their production, there will never be a deal.

    Lucky for me I’m an AGW denier. I think Copenhagen was a spectacular success.
