Dutch agency admits mistake in UN climate report - Yahoo! News
"The Dutch agency accepted responsibility for one mistake by the IPCC when it reported in 2005 that 55 percent of
the Netherlands is below sea level, when only 26 percent is.
The report should have said 55 percent is prone to flooding, including river flooding.
....
The second previously reported error claimed the Himalayan glaciers would melt by 2035, which the Dutch agency partly traced to a report on the likely shrinking of glaciers by the year 2350."
