The article at the end reads: "Chemistry has a huge part to play in finding solutions to the daunting problems that the IPCC report documents".
The biggest problem is with the IPCC itself; it was only a few years ago they were oh-so-sure in predicting average global warming at a rate of 2 degrees per century in the first decades of the 20th century. Here we are well into the second of those decades, and no matter how one looks at it, the IPCC has been hugely successful. That is, in making fortune tellers look good.
I say the Chemists should tell the IPCC: "In spite of the consensus at the time, it took us hundreds of years to realise the futility in solving the 'problem' of turning lead into gold. Hopefully it won't take you hundreds of years to realise you may be looking at the climate 'problem' in the same way."
