However, the aftermath of Climategate forced the United Nations climate watchdog to admit to intentionally publishing false claims; the IPCC claims about melting ice in the [[Alps]], the [[Andes]], and in [[Africa]] did not come from [[peer review]]ed scientific literature—but from ''Climbing Magazine'', and from a student dissertation—written by a [[climate change]] [[activist]] who was studying for a degree in [[Geography]].<ref>[[Glenn Beck]].

Obama lied about global warming when he said it will cause some places to "end up being a little bit cooler," due to man-made climate change.
