CLIMATE ALERT! Given Typhoon #Haiyan, UN Must Fully Assess Climate Change Risk and Feedbacks

Dear colleagues,
Please, we need more participation in this alert. It is very, very important that the UN climate panel assess and act upon climate feedbacks and worst case scenarios. It would be awesome if you could forward it as well.
For Earth,
Dr. Glen Barry

Given Typhoon #Haiyan, UN Must Fully Assess Climate Change Risk and Feedbacks

TAKE ACTION to have top scientists fully assess climate risk and feedbacks:

Typhoon Haiyan – believed to be the biggest storm to make landfall on record – clearly demonstrates the risk posed by abrupt climate change intensified extreme super storms. Yet the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) – the United Nations science body that assesses the state of climate science – is failing to carry out a comprehensive risk assessment that takes into account amplifying positive feedbacks and worse case scenarios. Without such a transparent and comprehensive climate risk assessment, that is free of government interference – the world finds it difficult to assess climate risk – and is unlikely to embrace urgent emissions cuts, protect and restore ecosystems, and implement a global carbon tax. Please demand such reforms at the IPCC.
