In its last report, published in 2001, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change concluded that there was a 66 to 90 percent chance that human activities were driving the most recent climate warming. But in its most recent report, which will be released on 2 February, the panel revised its claim and said that it is more than 90 percent likely that global warming since 1950 has been driven mainly by the buildup of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping greenhouse gases, and that more warming and rising sea levels are on the way.
Ian: Do you mean they really thought something else was causing climate change?
