Professor Phil Jones fastslår, at der ikke har været nogen betydningsfuld stigning i temperaturerne siden 1995. Det sker samtidig med, at en række forskere sår tvivl om de temperaturstigninger, der er registreret rundt omkring i verden. Mange af dem skyldes lokale forhold, og ikke global opvarmning, mener de.

For those who have heard that the emails were taken out of context–we provide that context and show it is worse when context is provided. For those who have heard that this is a tempest in a teacup–we show why it will swamp the conventional wisdom on climate change. And for those who have heard that this scandal is just ‘boys being boys’–well, boy. It’s as seamy as what happened on Wall Street.
About the Author
Steven M Mosher, born in Grand Rapids Michigan, graduated Northwestern University and attended UCLA for graduate studies in literature. He later joined Northrop Aircraft where he worked as an threat analyst and director of analysis until transitioning to the commercial world in 1995 when he joined Creative Labs as a director of marketing and product development. Since 1995 he has specialized in the development of new consumer technologies such as 3D graphics, web cameras, Mp3 players and a variety of wireless devices. Since 2007 he has worked in the open source community and has been active leader in the effort to get open access to the data and code underlying climate science. Thomas Fuller was born in Denver Colorado and currently lives in San Francisco. Trained by the U.S. Navy in electronics and cryptography, he has been writing about technology ever since, usually market research reports with exciting titles like ‘Project Global Market for Infusion Pumps 2009-2014.’ This is a lot of fun by comparison.

Fusk, sjusk og skandaler i kø – når ideologi, pseudo-videnskab og særinteresser blandes sammen til en farlig cocktail.
Hvordan kan så mange så anerkendte fortalere for, at det er et helt sikkert faktum, at vi oplever klimaforandringer, og at de er menneskeskabte (og fordrer øjeblikkelige, radikale ændringer) tage så meget fejl så ofte?
Svaret ligger måske i eksistensen af dét, Bjørn Lomborg rammende har kaldt »det klima-industrielle kompleks«.
[…]
Noget lignende kan man sige om klima-industrien. Der er store beløb på spil – faktisk større end forsvarsbudgetterne under Den Kolde Krig – og for de forskere, der kan levere de rette forskningsresultater, eller de virksomheder, der kan lave produkter, der passer ind i miljøpolitikken, kan der være endog ganske store gevinster at hente. Lige så for de politikere, der svinger med folkestemningen. Hertil kan man måske også tilføje medierne, som altid foretrækker en historie om dommedag frem for en om, at verden er, som den er, og har det ok. Til gengæld vil de alle tabe, hvis pludseligt stemningen svinger den anden vej, og måske netop derfor bliver stemningen så intens og næsten hadefuld overfor forskere, der udfordrer den politiske korrekthed.
Så bliver det let at slippe igennem med dårlig videnskab og svært at komme igennem med modargumenter.
2.400 klimaforskere og mange tusinde politikere og direktører er også en slags mennesker, og der er ingen grund til at tro, at de personer, organisationer og virksomheder, der i disse år udgør »det klimaindustrielle kompleks«, er spor mindre egoistiske eller mere altruistiske end f.eks. olie- og kulindustrien er det, eller som deltagerne i det militær-industrielle kompleks var det under Den Kolde Krig. De handler alle målrettet og fornuftigt, og som Storm P. sagde, kræver det god moral at sælge elastik i metermål.
The number of actual weather stations used to calculate average global temperatures was reduced from about 6,000 in the 1970s to about 1,500 today. The number of reporting stations in Canada dropped from 600 to 35.

To us, it looks like just another example of ideologically driven climate deceit following the Climate Research Unit scandal and the fraudulent claim by the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change that Himalayan glaciers would soon vanish.

And so Dr. North is building a dossier on TERI Europe in the hopes of gathering sufficent evidence to lodge a formal and robust complaint with the UK Charity Commission. Investigation of the complaint would mean that Dr. Pachauri (and others within TERI, Europe or elsewhere) will have to specify their earnings and their sources of income. If this succeeds the scandal that will be revealed will be bigger then Climategate by not just a factor, but by several orders of magnitude.

Ventura and his team attempted to track down the key architects of the scheme, a search which led them to Beijing China and the heavily guarded residence of global warming pioneer and billionaire Maurice Strong.
The show lifts the lid on how the very same alarmists pushing the threat of climate change are profiting in the billions from carbon trading systems in which they have a huge personal stake.
The most damning part of the program is when Ben Santer, a climate researcher and lead IPCC author of Chapter 8 of the 1995 IPCC Working Group I Report, admits that he deleted sections of the IPCC chapter which stated that humans were not responsible for climate change.
Accusing Santer of altering opinions in the IPCC report that disagreed with the man-made thesis behind climate change, Lord Monckton told the program, “In comes Santer and re-writes it for them, after the scientists have sent in their finalized draft, and that finalized draft said at five different places, there is no discernable human effect on global temperature – I’ve seen a copy of this – Santer went through, crossed out all of those and substituted a new conclusion, and this has been the official conclusion ever since.”

Ovenstående har været kendt i flere år, men en ny skandale under opsejlæing, og som flere web-steder beretter om, er hvordan IPCC’s formand Rajendra Pachauri – ja formanden for FN’s klimapanel – er infiltreret i mange forskellige former med handel med CO2-kvoter.

A prejudiced journal editor conspires with senior IPCC scientists to delay and discredit a paper by four distinguished scientists demonstrating that a central part of the IPCC’s scientific argument is erroneous.

Greenpeace is one of the “most unethical and irresponsible corporations on Earth,” said Christina Wilson, a recent graduate from the University of Minnesota-Duluth. “It’s time to expose it for what it is, and help promote real environmental justice. So I was really excited to participate in this human rights effort.”
“The ‘Ship of Lies’ and ‘Propaganda Warrior’ banners are part of CFACT’s long-term effort to bring sense and balance back to the environmental debate,” said Rothbard.

Den blå linie er rådata. Den sorte er en korrektionsfaktor ‘forskerne’ lægger ind for at opnå skræmmekurven – den røde.
The changes appear to affect the Global Historical Climate Network (GHCN), a project of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration’s National Climate Data Center. Note that this is the same agency that employs Dr. Eugene Wahl, who might be implicated in the research misconduct allegations made against Michael E. Mann at Penn State University.
‘Personally, I think it is highly irresponsible to play into the hands of the sceptics who continually promote the idea that “global warming finished in 1998” when that is so patently not true,’ she told him in an email.
After a brief exchange, he complied and sent a final note:
‘Have a look in ten minutes and tell me you are happier. We have changed headline and more.’
Afterwards, Abbess boasted on her website:
‘Climate Changers, Remember to challenge any piece of media that seems like it’s been subject to spin or scepticism. Here’s my go for today. The BBC actually changed an article I requested a correction for.’
Last week, Michael Schlesinger, Professor of Atmospheric Studies at the University of Illinois, sent a still cruder threat to Andrew Revkin of the New York Times, accusing him of ‘gutter reportage’, and warning:
‘The vibe that I am getting from here, there and everywhere is that your reportage is very worrisome to most climate scientists … I sense that you are about to experience the “Big Cutoff” from those of us who believe we can no longer trust you, me included.’
But in the wake of Warmergate, such threats – and the readiness to bow to them – may become rarer.
‘A year ago, if a reporter called me, all I got was questions about why I’m trying to deny climate change and am threatening the future of the planet,’ said Professor Ross McKitrick of Guelph University near Toronto, a long-time collaborator with McIntyre.
‘Now, I’m getting questions about how they did the hockey stick and the problems with the data. Maybe the emails have started to open people’s eyes.’
The goal here is to share that understanding with interested laypeople. I’m also a big believer in learning by doing; if you really want to know how a carburetor works, nothing beats taking one apart and rebuilding it. That same rule applies to climate models. And so I decided to put together this simple step-by-step rebuilder’s manual.
Regardless of what side you’ve chosen in the climate debate (I’m not going to pretend that I’m anything but a crazed pro-carbon extremist) I hope this will give you a nuts-and-bolts understanding of what climate modeling is about, as well as give some context to the Climategate emails.
