With all the crazy talk about “Russian meddling” in the 2016 Presidential election, one wonders if the same sort of crazy talk might be applied to the release of a special climate report just weeks before the U.S. mid-term elections. Given the timing, you can be sure that whatever is in the report will be front page news and used by the left as a political tool. Here is a press release from the IPCC, h/t to Dr. Willie Soon
Save the Date: IPCC Special Report Global Warming of 1.5ºC
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) will meet in Incheon, Republic of Korea, on 1-5 October 2018, to consider the Special Report Global Warming of 1.5ºC. Subject to approval, the Summary for Policymakers will be released on Monday 8 October with a live-streamed press conference.
The press conference, addressed by the IPCC Chair and Co-Chairs from the three IPCC Working Groups, will be open to registered media, and take place at 10:00 local time (KST), 03:00 CEST, 02:00 BST, 01:00 GMT and 21:00 (Sunday 7 October) EDT.
Registered media will also be able to access the Summary for Policymakers and press release under embargo, once they are available. They will also be able to attend the opening session of the meeting at 10:00-11:00 on Monday 1 October. All other sessions of the IPCC meeting are closed to the public and to media.
The opening session of the meeting will include statements by the Chair of the IPCC, senior officials the IPCC’s two parent bodies World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and United Nations Environment Programme (UN Environment) and of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), and senior officials of the Republic of Korea.
The IPCC meetings and the press conference will take place at Songdo Convensia in Incheon.
Arrangements for media registration, submitting questions remotely, booking interviews, and broadcast facilities will be communicated in the coming weeks.
The report, whose full name is Global Warming of 1.5°C, an IPCC special report on the impacts of global warming of 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels and related global greenhouse gas emission pathways, in the context of strengthening the global response to the threat of climate change, sustainable development, and efforts to eradicate poverty, is being prepared under the scientific leadership of all three IPCC Working Groups.
Formally, the meeting will start with the 48th Session of the IPCC. Next a joint session of the three Working Groups chaired by their Co-Chairs will consider the Summary for Policymakers line by line for approval. Then the 48th Session of the IPCC will resume to accept the Summary for Policymakers and overall report.
The IPCC decided to prepare the report, in response to an invitation from the UNFCCC Conference of the Parties at its 21st meeting in December 2015 when the Paris Agreement was signed.

This special report can only mean one thing. I know this surprising revelation will shock you but…
The IPCC, the UN and their friends are running low on money. They need more money and specifically, your money.
“…and eradicate poverty”!!!! Well they do read WUWT after all. They’ve been badly stung by posts that point out the idiocy of a policy that’s to save unborn grandchildren of Champagne Soshulists and impoverish and kill the ones we already have. I trust its the old the chestnut- booming green industry that will eradicate poverty. You can be sure that this surprise was wrought because of Trump and will be no surprise at all.
Ive posted on the topic that even with all stops pulled out, we just couldn’t get to 2C by 2100. It used to be 3-5C with 95% certainty above 1950 temps, then they stretched it back to 1850 when projected proved to be 300% greater rise than observed. Lingering doubts and a steady decline in estinates of ECS brought forth 1.5C as dangerous.
Were we not informed that Pre-Industrial temperatures were low because of Dalton Minimum, from which we have slowly climbed back? So what will IPCC prove except that i can alarm the Guardian?
The only surprise would be if the protagonists of climactic doom actually admit, “Meh, we were wrong.”
… and exactly what does a UN Committee on climate change have to do with ”’efforts to eradicate poverty”??
The breaking news is that this will be the last IPCC conference.
One can but dream….
So what will IPCC prove except that i can alarm the Guardian?

Australia is a large Island Continent. The Capital of Tasmania in the South Hob art has snow in the winter, the capital of the Northern Terrotory is Darwin, which is close to the Equator so if
a person were to fly from Hobart to Darwin in our winter, the degrees warmer would be considerable, yet people do it with no ill effects.
So what is all this nonsense of 1.5 C being considered dangerous.
Human beings came from tropical Africa, but to live in most other parts of the world we need to wear clothing to survive, and yet we are told to panic at the thought of a difference or increase of 1.5 C from about 1800, the time of the bulk of the industrial revolution.
