Stephan:   Today's SR is dedicated to the Summary Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. I urge you to download and read this. It is our destiny. And it calls forth from each of us a response, both as individuals and collectively. You will hear skeptics say that this is not the real report, only a summary prepared by an unrepresentative small group motivated by bias, who seek to influence gullible politicians. This is untrue. This Summary has been prepared by a committee that is a chosen subset of the entire 2,500 specialist panel, and the full report will not contradict, but provide the scientific case for the conclusions and recommendations contained in the summary. Click through and when you are at the IPCC site, look on the right for a window that says 'Information for the Press' and, in the options list, you will see the Summary.
