IPCC Scientist Confirms Global Warming Monkey Business
Eduardo Zorita/The Lid ^ | 11/30/09 | The Lid

Posted on 11/30/2009 2:38:59 PM PST by Shellybenoit

Eduardo Zorita is Scientist at the Institute for Coastal Research at the GKSS Research Center in Geesthacht, Germany. Zorita has been a small player, a self described infantryman in the IPCC research regarding climate change trends. On his website, Mr Zorita released a statement that should turn the heads of Climategate deniers.

I may confirm what has been written in other places: research in some areas of climate science has been and is full of machination, conspiracies, and collusion, as any reader can interpret from the CRU-files. They depict a realistic, I would say even harmless, picture of what the real research in the area of the climate of the past millennium has been in the last years. The scientific debate has been in many instances hijacked to advance other agendas.

If something like this were discovered in a quality assurance audit of a nuclear power plant, that plant would be shut down. I know, I was at Tennessee Valley Authority in the late 1980s.

The CRU has been audited, and they failed, very badly. Everything done by these arrogant jerks and every conclusion derived from their work should be tossed. The future is too important to be determined by sloppy work driven by financial interests.

“SOME” AREAS? Change that to “all” and you would have an accurate admission.

I presently work for the major nuclear power plant vendor. What you wrote was my thought almost exactly. I would add that there would be prison time involved as well.

If I remember correctly, three people involved in the Davis-Besse boric acid corrosion problem were indicted. I don’t know if they went to trial.

How come the same nitwits who don’t trust computers for voting think computer climate models are infallible?

I don’t know if they went to trial.

Don't know about the third or the trial for two of the three, but one was given 3 years probation and $4500.00 fine. Two of the three were given a 5 year ban from working in Nuclear power. I don't think they need to have their names passed about and I won't but it's public record. A 5 year ban might as well be a life time ban. I'll bet these climate frauds won't receive anything but a pay raise and new grant money, even though they have cost our nation millions and if C&T passes billions or trillions.

Nothing new here. Since big government created big science, the temptation for ‘harmony’ has been nearly irresistible.

Wave enough money at anyone but a Saint, and they will sing your song.

Anyone with any common sense will be doubtful of conclusions reached by government funded ‘scientists’ who serve the interests of bigger and more powerful government.

The privately funded scientist who disagrees will be branded as a tool of industry and the government funded scientist who finds differently will soon be starved of funds.

I propose a ‘wall of separation’ between government, and Science.

AUGUST 1997 : (WASHINGTON DC : THE WHITE HOUSE : ENRON CEO KEN LAY & BRITISH PETROLEUM’S LORD JOHN BROWNE , BOTH KEY PROPONENTS OF THE CARBON CREDIT SCHEME, MEET WITH US PRES BILL CLINTON AND VP AL GORE IN THE OVAL OFFICE TO DEVELOP CLINTON ADMIN POSITIONS FOR KYOTO TREATY NEGOTIATIONS —See GLOBAL WARMING/CLIMATE CHANGE) Whatever its impact on the environment, the cap-and-trade carbon scheme is sure to boost the economic and political prospects of people and groups that are behind it. Before the company collapsed under the weight of financial scandal, Enron under CEO Ken Lay was a key proponent of the cap-and-trade idea. So was BP’s Lord John Browne, before he resigned last May under a cloud of personal scandal. In August 1997, Lay and Browne met with President Bill Clinton and Vice President Gore in the Oval Office to develop administration positions for the Kyoto negotiations that resulted in an international treaty to regulate greenhouse gas emissions.
The U.S. Senate voted 95 to 0 not to ratify the Kyoto treaty in 1997. But that hasn’t stopped Al Gore. ————————The Money and Connections Behind Al Gore’s Carbon Crusade
