Leaked Climate Change Emails Expose Tricks and Manipulation

In a blatant attempt to hide the decline in global temperatures since 1960, climatologists have been exposed as manipulating data using 'tricks' to support their own hyped-up global warming agenda.

Hackers managed to penetrate the servers of the University of East Anglia, in eastern England, a leading global research centre on climate change and uncovered thousands of emails and documents meant to be kept secret from the public, showing direct manipulation of climate data to alter climate charts in an effort to hide the decline in global warming since 1960.

While hacking is never to be encouraged, it has thrown a massive spotlight onto the secrets hidden from the public and indicates collaboration between global warming scientists to hide the truth and instead promote their cause.

At a critical time in history when world leaders are about to meet in Copenhagen to discuss ways to combat so-called man-made global warming, surely this new evidence, however obtained, must condemn the lie peddled to the unsuspecting public that global warming is a threat.

Antarctica which contains most of the world's frozen water as ice has in fact been expanding in the past couple of decades.  Who knows why the Arctic has been thinning during summers?  Perhaps it is part of nature's way of providing balance and uniformity around the planet as the Antarctic cools and expands.

Hopefully the supporters of global warming will read the leaked emails and reports and petition their leaders to step back from this fraudulent global warming issue. Or maybe they would rather continue believing the lie, because it better serves their cause.

In the end the planet could not care less about a few emails ! and any fool who beleives the planet is not warming will be cursed by future generations.

Osprey, if the evidence was overwhelming and proven beyond a doubt, THEN WHY DO THE 'EXPERT' CLIMATOLOGISTS HAVE TO REVERT TO 'TRICKS' AND FUDGE THE GRAPHS??? If it was so OBVIOUS they WOULDN'T HAVE TO USE 'TRICKS'!!!!

HELLLOOOOO?????!!! Wake-up people!  The fraud about man-made global warming has just been exposed and everyone is just fine with that????!!!!!!

The Planet also does not care about C02, except to have food for yes plants. Even with tampered evidence smacking you in the face you still believe in GW. Its been proven that the planet has been cooling for 10 years.   Moron

I think you're wrong, but I would love it if you could post a link for a peer-edited, scientific journal published within the last year that shows that the planet has been cooling.

So your argument is "My crystal ball sez you're wrong, so you must also be evil, and so regardless of the evidence...shut up." You'll forgive me for not being convinced, even as I forgive you for pretending to make rational judgements on scientific matters.

^^ hahahha any fool that believes it IS warming is a total fool and will be cursed as a linchpin that brought a global fascist regime against us... they will be cursed for all eternity as the people who ushered in a dark age of population reduction and global slavery.

Hear hear, Nate!Global Warming has been a blatant, calculated, devious effort to create a global socialist government and achieve what no other socialist government has ever been able to accomplish:  massive re-distribution of wealth.The leftist power brokers have used junk science from day one and the pinko press has dutifully reported gross supposition as fact.

osprey, unfortunately your are just plain misinformed.  Do some research on the subject instead of blathering out of non existent fear.

I have been interested the problem for 40 years i.e. since the beginning of period man made warming .I have seen the many clear examples of global warming with my own eyes,  sea level rise,  glaciers melting , the worst wildfires you can imagine, record high temperatures and draughts lasting more than a decade. Oh and by the way all this was forecast 30 years ago ! I leave the research to those who are qualified to do it. You can argue the points below, but no competent scientist will deny the following:

  1. The greenhouse effect is real
  2. The climate has warmed  since 1970
  3. CO2 is greenhouse gas
  4. the level of CO2 in the atmosphere has risen by more than 30%
  5. The origin of the extra CO2 is from burning fossil fuels

Osprey - its seems you have an open mind and would be willing to accept some hard evidence if it were available to you.  It is my firm belief that in fact the world has not warmed in the past two decades.  If someone could prove to me beyond a doubt without 'tricks' applied to graphs I would accept it, but with the evidence I've seen from both sides, the non-warming argument appears strongest - so I am running with that for now - but I am always open-minded.

Please read my other article on the subject and consider my reasoning:

http://my.nowpublic.com/environment/hysteria-real-threat-not-global-warming

AND I repeat my comment from below that article here with observed scientific evidence of global cooling from real climate experts, which still stands true today (24 Nov 2009) and remains unchallenged by any global warming climate expert (they can't argue against this firm evidence so they choose to ignore it):

Read the following news article from April 18, 2009 which highlights this for you.

Antarctic ice is growing, not melting away

http://www.news.com.au/story/0,27574,25348657-401,00.html

Some highlights:

"ICE is expanding in much of Antarctica, contrary to the widespread public belief that global warming is melting the continental ice cap."

"Antarctica has 90 per cent of the Earth's ice and 80 per cent of its fresh water"

"East Antarctica is four times the size of west Antarctica and parts of it are cooling. The Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research report prepared for last week's meeting of Antarctic Treaty nations in Washington noted the South Pole had shown "significant cooling in recent decades". "

"...sea ice losses in west Antarctica over the past 30 years had been more than offset by increases in the Ross Sea region, just one sector of east Antarctica. "

"Dr Allison said there was not any evidence of significant change in the mass of ice shelves in east Antarctica nor any indication that its ice cap was melting."

"Ice shelves in general have episodic carvings and there can be large icebergs breaking off - I'm talking 100km or 200km long - every 10 or 20 or 50 years."

"Ice core drilling in the fast ice off Australia's Davis Station in East Antarctica by the Antarctic Climate and Ecosystems Co-Operative Research Centre shows that last year, the ice had a maximum thickness of 1.89m, its densest in 10 years."

"A paper to be published soon by the British Antarctic Survey in the journal Geophysical Research Letters is expected to confirm that over the past 30 years, the area of sea ice around the continent has expanded."

But go to the news site and read the full article for yourself.  No tricks here.  No hype or hysteria.  Just simple, easy to observe facts that the ice caps are COOLING.

Bookmark the news link above and email it to all your friends (and your federal politicians) who are worried about global warming.  It's just not happening.

Don't live in fear, instead be informed.

Its well know that Prime Minister Thatcher (also a scientist) invented global warming as a weapon against the miners. This was picked up by the Greens who now use it as a weapon against the motor car and the West in general. It does not matter to the Greens that the Earth has been cooling for at least 12 years or that the ice caps are expanding in places more than they are contracting. It does not matter to them that 32,000 USA scientists have signed a petition which states that increased CO2 is a good thing, it promotes plant growth. Where sea levels are rising its due to the land sinking, not the sea rising! The Thames Barrier was built long before anyone heard of global warming or climate change. It was built because the south of Great Britain is sinking while the north is rising. And who advised builders to put homes on flood planes? And since when did Bangladesh not flood every year? The climate may well change and we will have to adapt, but mankinds role in it is negligable compared to natural processes.

So after ten years of telling my wife Global Warming I mean Global Cooling I mean Climate Change was bogus junk science.It seems I was right.Take that all you leftist morons. Raise Your Voice?? No Raise Your IQ.   Why do Leftists have to lie? Because the green movement is communist and they have to lie.

Over 90% of the worlds glaciers are in retreat no one can deny this. There are numerous sources of data which proves this see below for just one. www.skepticalscience.com/himalayan-glaciers-growing.htmThe east antarictic ice is melting  according to Nasa.see belowwww.abc.net.au/pm/content/2009/s2751232.htmI am only scared by people who refuse to accept the problem and do nothing. The problem we know how to solve.

Osprey - Did you read read the article I provided and if so, what do you say about it?  Please read it and then comment for me.  Here it is again.

Nobody ever talks about the 'consensus' on Einstein's E=mc^2 or Newtons F=ma.  They talk about the theory, experiments, predictions, and engineering which demonstrate the veracity, regardless of what anyone thinks. There is a reason that Al Gore always talks about consensus. -Tom

As someone who considered herself well researched and informed on the topic of (alleged) global warmimg, I was a believer. This revelation makes me doubt, but rather than leap blindly to the opposite end of the spectrum, I will be going back over all the diverse resources I have already examined with a still more critical eye. However, I hope that this will not keep people from being concerned about the effects of pollution on the planet- if, as it seems, global warming is not in fact a true phenomenon, there is still the extinction of hundreds of species and public health issues tied to pollution originating from industry and vehicles. Perhaps a few crazy "green leftist communists" are dirty liars...but what about the CHILDREN?

Global warming Man-Made Fraud
It is shame that we people are faked to believe in global warming by special interest groups that only is interested to rip off the already scarce money via carbon taxes, higher energy prices, etc. from taxpayer-consumers' purses. Money that they need to survive this financial crisis. Despite all the Global Warming Legislation, it won’t reduce CO2 emission. Which even isn't the cause of global warming at all! Humanity will keep spewing carbon into the atmosphere. The Kyoto Protocol already divided the world into two groups. The roughly 1.2 billion citizens of industrialized countries equalling 20% of the people living on Earth that is expected to reduce their emissions. And the other 80% or 5 billion including both China and India that aren't.  These numbers alone are a guarantee that humanity isn't going to reduce global emissions at all, not now and not in the future. The long-term trend is clear. The 80% populations and their per head emissions are increasing much faster than ours could fall under any remotely plausible carbon-reduction scheme.

Man-made global warming is a fantasy, engineered by the global-warming fanatics themselves. Climate change is occurring – as it always has – and is harmless. The same cannot be said for the unspeakably irresponsible proposals of scientists whose egos have far outstripped their knowledge.

Planet Earth is five billion years old. Our sun exerts more control on all the planets than any other factor. Our climate has never stopped changing and never will.

About two decades ago, some politician/scientists decided that the “average temperature” of our planet should remain constant. The global warming hysteria has allowed politicians to spend insane amounts of taxpayer dollars to “fix” a problem that we humans absolutely have no control over.
 
Politicians have kept us dependent on foreign oil by not allowing further development of nuclear energy - and energy from fusion - specifically concerning the harmless disposal of nuclear waste- and to drill and refine our own oil. Our climate will continue to change based on the sun’s activity levels.
To be frank, I’m not against the preservation of our environment, or disputing global warming, but am concerned that the objectivity has been shattered by people who depend on it, by exploiting fear about global warming that definitely not is going to destroy our planet. Once governments start subsidizing political motivated issues, it is clear that everyone wants to be on the bandwagon to cash in on the money. The propaganda made, goes beyond reality and is creating panic in order to make better impact.

An abundance of new peer-reviewed studies, numbers of independent analysis, and data error discoveries in the last several months has prompted scientists to declare that fear of catastrophic man-made global warming “bites the dust” and the scientific underpinnings for alarm may be “falling apart.”  The latest study to cast doubt on climate fears finds that even a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide would not have the previously predicted dire impacts on global temperatures. This new study is not unique, as a host of recent peer-reviewed studies have cast a chill on global warming fears.

Finally the Global Warming (Climate Change) hoax is revealed.  The researchers have been fudging the data for decades to fit their own theories.  Follow the money.  All of the "Climate Change" researchers and their organizations have received hundreds of million of dollars from various governments and other organizations to study global warming.  When their raw data didn't fit the theory, it was ignored or new data was found that fit their beliefs.  Whole industries have grown up around this hoax.  Al Gore and his followers have made tens of millions of dollars.If this research is true.  Show us the raw data and the mathematical algorithms that crunched the data so independent researchers can verify the results.... but of course the raw data was deleted... how convenient!  Follow the money....

Environmental CO2 global warming the hoax of the century: Who does believe any scientists after the disclosure regarding "global warming emails". Another new "religion" is exposed with all kinds of damaging, the plastic bottle that's more detrimental to our health and environment! Creating another panic about our health, well-being, and whatever more can be imagined, in the hope that many will join the (activists) herd just for better research funding. Follow the money trail... Remember the "cooling of the Earth crises predictions" of a few decades back, or the highly publicized "Alan Gore-Moore" crusaders, what simpletons we humans are, we can and do create volcanoes erruptions, hurricanes? Yes we do make smog, we produce CO2 and tail pipe emissions, but folks get some scale to your thinking: use your own brains, senses and intelligence to clean up your personal and local act by not littering your waste and be economical in the use of water and energy.
