While the media is doing their best to avoid covering the bombshell Climategate scandal, the global warming propaganda industry is working on all cylinders to bring you the latest in scaremongering and hysteria.  The latest production is the “Copenhagen Diagnosis,” which laughably declares that global warming is worse than the exaggerated and made-up claims so far reported by the IPCC.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change—the world’s foremost body for weighing and assessing climate science—received a kick in the pants today from members who say the climate situation is much worse than the IPCC has so far reported.

Twenty-six climatologists—including 14 IPCC members—have released a startling update to the panel’s work, reporting that sea levels could rise and methane-laden arctic permafrost could melt much sooner than the panel had anticipated.

“The Copenhagen Diagnosis: Updating the World on the Latest Climate Science” is not an official IPCC report; it’s a summary of the hundreds of peer-reviewed research papers that have been published since the IPCC’s last assessment. It was released now to fill the long gap in between official IPCC reports—the last was released in 2007, but the drafting text is more than three years old, and the next isn’t scheduled until 2013. It was also timed to the Copenhagen climate talks, of course.

We know from the Climategate emails that the peer-reviewed process has been thoroughly compromised by the political agenda of the warmist industry. Conspiring to subvert the anonymous review process, targeting journals that publish “skeptic” articles and demonizing any and all dissent are just some of the tricks they revealed.

This report, far from a summary of objective science, is a politically timed polemic designed to stoke fear and drum up support for the coming Copenhagen meeting, where world leaders will conspire to destroy the world economy and limit the individual freedoms of their citizens.

Update: IPCC Chair Rajendra Pachauri confirms the suspicion that global warming alarmism is an all-out attack on western life.
