"DOHA: Qatar has entered into a strategic partnership with the globally renowned Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research(PIK) to set up the region’s pioneering Climate Change Research Institute and a Global Climate Change Forum in Doha.
Qatar Foundation (QF) and the Potsdam Institute jointly announced the partnership in the presence of H H Sheikha Moza bint Nasser, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and UNFCCC Executive Secretary Christiana Figueres at a function held on the sidelines of COP18/CMP8 yesterday.
The institute, to be set up under Qatar Foundation, is expected to be in place by 2014, Professor Hans Joachim Schellnhuber, Founding Director, PIK, told reporters after the signing ceremony....
Another key effort of this partnership, the Global Climate Change Forum, will provide a platform for like-minded countries to work together and create innovative climate change strategies.
The forum will supplement ongoing official UNFCCC negotiations and discussions by paving the way for an alliance of pioneers to implement new approaches based upon cutting-edge science....
The partnership with the Potsdam Institute forms part of Qatar’s commitment to invest 2.8 percent of the country’s GDP to research, said Faisal bin Mohammed Al Suwaidi, President, Research Development, QF.
In addition to government representatives and scientists, the forum will involve multiple stakeholders such as non-governmental organisations with international reach and relevant expertise in the field."...

Schellnhuber's fellow German UN climate official Ottmar Edenhofer said climate policy has nothing to do with climate, it's to "redistribute" the "world's wealth":
11/2010: "We redistribute de facto the world's wealth by climate policy....One has to free oneself from the illusion that international climate policy is environmental policy. This has almost nothing to do with environmental policy anymore, with problems such as deforestation or the ozone hole."...
11/18/10, "UN IPCC Official Admits 'We Redistribute World's Wealth By Climate Policy'," NewsBusters (quote is third paragraph of Edenhofer
"For the record, Edenhofer was co-chair of the IPCC's Working Group III, and was a lead author of the IPCC's Fourth Assessment Report released in 2007 which controversially concluded, "Most of the observed increase in global average temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations."...
"EDENHOFER: Basically it's a big mistake to discuss climate policy separately from the major themes of globalization. The climate summit in Cancun at the end of the month is not a climate conference, but one of the largest economic conferences since the Second World War....First of all, developed countries have basically expropriated the atmosphere of the world community. But one must say clearly that we redistribute de facto the world's wealth by climate policy....One has to free oneself from the illusion that international climate policy is environmental policy.
This has almost nothing to do with environmental policy anymore, with problems such as deforestation or the ozone hole."...

In Feb. 2013 fresh off his lucrative business deal with Qatar and the UN, Schellnhuber tells the UN Security Council in NY that "rich nations" (meaning the broke US taxpayer) must pay poor nations or risk revolution:
2/15/13, "Climate Change’s Links to Conflict Draws UN Attention," Bloomberg, by Flavia Krause-Jackson
"This is one of the scenarios Joachim Schellnhuber, director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, presented today tomembers of the United Nations Security Council in New York to show the connection between climate change and global security challenges.
Either rich nations will find a way to supply needy nations suffering from damaging climate effects “or you will have all kinds of unrest and revolutions,
with the export of angry and hungry people to the industrialized countries,” Schellnhuber said in an interview yesterday."...
=====================
Ed. note: Unelected, unaccountable parasites walk around now demanding US taxpayers transfer billions more of their earnings to unelected, unaccountable UN jet setters in perpetuity as reparations for use of the atmosphere. If the Republican Party existed they would have laughed this massive crime into oblivion long ago. George Bush the First got the whole climate racket going in 1990 with a grandiose mandate that US taxpayers fund imaginary climate change and global warming in the US and around the world, work with and share US efforts with "international entities:"
Global Warming ‘action’ was institutionalized in US government in 1990 by George Bush the 1st in the “U.S. Global Change Research Act of 1990.” CO2 reduction is mentioned near the end in Section 204, #4.
Devoting 13 federal agencies to ‘climate action' is if anything, too much 'climate action.'
Trillions have been taken from US taxpayers for climate endeavors via agency budget allocations, tax subsidies, diversion of US military to climate or green projects, countless federal regulations, vast sums shipped out in no strings foreign aid for ‘climate’ capacity building, etc.
Other countries’ CO2 hasn’t dropped despite hundreds of billions spent on cap and trade and extra taxes. This isn’t to say the US government hasn’t become business partners with the ‘climate’ industry.
