ABSTRACT: This article addresses the
relationship between science and propaganda using the Climate Change
controversy as a study model. The United Nations International Panel on Climate
Change (IPCC) is the recognized leader on this model issuing multiple
Assessment Reports. This review begins with a discussion of the basics—what is
propaganda and how does it work, followed by whether the IPCC adopted or
rejected it. Next explored is how propaganda can be seamlessly fused into
“report writing” in a way that arouses and makes interesting humdrum details. Some
unexpected results emerged from current and historical observation data
involving the Greenhouse theory, CO2 sources, ocean pH, sea levels, and ice
balances. The final section confronts whether “a point of view” constrains
objectivity in favor of outcome. The overall conclusion is that the earth is boringly healthy.
