The point is that it was presented as a legit scientific rejoinder to the 
generally accepted consensus on anthrogenic global climate change. As it turned 
out the so called institute takes in a lot of money from Australian energy 
companies. Its run by someone who has a vested interested in minimizing global 
climate change. 

In other words the report and the institute backing it have all the hall marks 
of a made up report designed to provide a "scientific" fig leaf to a very 
questionable report. In other words its worthless and does not add anything to 
the conversation.
