I read The Independent Online:

"In a startling report, the WMO, which normally produces detailed
scientific reports and staid statistics at the year's end, highlighted
record extremes in weather and climate occurring all over the world in
recent weeks - and linked them to climate change.
The unprecedented warning snip from an impeccably respected UN
organisation snip.
The unstable world of climate change has long been a prediction. Now,
the WMO says, it is a reality.snip

The whole story:

Opinions ?

You want an opinion about the United Nations? Since when did anyone
care what they did, said or ratified? It's hard to imagine a group of
politicians with more glory and less respect. The eec comes close but
that's just a place for failed opposition spokesmen and burglars.

Well you may or not know Michael, that Trotsky called their predecessor's
'The League of Nations', " A thieves Kitchen".

I'm not to sure at present whether they were involved in the 'Tuvalu
islands' claim for compensation for rising sea levels (in fact they went
down slightly) but that's the sort of thing I'd imagine them getting into.

They have very plush offices in

So far though I can't find any actuall name/member of their Organisation.
