Open thread for night owls: Leaked draft of part two of U.N. climate report warns of food problems

A source has leaked a draft of the second installment of the report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The draft document of the IPCC's Working Group II, which focuses on "Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability," was leaked to a blog run by Donna LaFramboise, a Canadian who promotes climate-change denial and argues that there is no consensus among scientists about global warming. The IPCC report will not be finalized until March and may undergo substantial editing before then.
