Emails that rocked climate change campaign leaked from Siberian 'closed city' university

Suspicions were growing last night that Russian security services were behind the leaking of the notorious British ‘Climategate’ emails which threaten to undermine tomorrow’s Copenhagen global warming summit.

An investigation by The Mail on Sunday has discovered that the explosive hacked emails from the University of East Anglia were leaked via a small web server in the formerly closed city of Tomsk in Siberia.

The leaks scandal has left the scientific community in disarray after claims that key climate change data was manipulated in the run-up to the climate change summit of world leaders.

The row erupted when hundreds of messages between scientists at the university’s Climatic Research Unit (CRU) and their colleagues around the world were placed on the internet along with other documents.

The CRU is internationally recognised as one of the most important sources of information on the rise in global temperatures.

Its data is relied on by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the UN body which co-ordinates the world response to climate change.

But now the CRU’s findings are under suspicion.

The leaked emails appear to show that CRU director Professor Phil Jones and colleagues attempted to manipulate the figures and hide their raw data from researchers with opposing views.

Prof Jones has stepped aside from his post while claims are investigated that he wanted certain papers excluded from the United Nations’ next major assessment of climate science.

Russia – one of the world’s largest producers and users of oil and gas – has a vested interest in opposing sweeping new agreements to cut emissions, which will be discussed by world leaders in Copenhagen tomorrow.

Russia believes current rules are stacked against it, and has threatened to pull the plug on Copenhagen without concessions to Kremlin concerns.

The Mail on Sunday understands that the hundreds

Cripes! Are we going to have to thank the Russians for saving the world from Algore?

Well, duh! Everyone in the world has a vested interest in killing this hoax.
Everyone except the snake oil salesmen who are going to profit from it.

I never would have thought the day would come when the Russians would save our freedom.

Our world is a least sideways and is totally turning upside down.

LOL!!

The irony of it all is the reason - profits! The Russians just may turn out to be capitalists after all. Ha!

Siberia leaked the Scam that Global Warming is, ohh the Irony....

[pepsionice]

I believe all of these global warming scientists probably are sitting there and gasping at reality. The Russians probably have released ten percent of what they’ve gathered. They’ve likely gone into every server...at every foundation or university...got into tens of millions of emails. The whole mess is riding in first gear at present....imagine a Al Gore email coming out? I think this will turn far more fascinating in the months ahead.

[American Constitutionalist]

Hey Liberals ? Main Fringe Media ? your trusted buddies, the Russians stabbed you in the back.
It's looks as though, you giving away our defense shield is going to make you look even more foolish for trusting the Russians after this...

[SpaceBar]

Barbara Boxer should go there to arrest them.

[American Constitutionalist]

The Irony.... Siberia = very very COLD !! destroying the Global Warming Myth...

[Westlander]

Shhhh. It never happened.

[The Cajun]

Maybe for the first time in their lives some libtards will be saying “Commie Bastards”.

[SatinDoll]

OMG! Stop, this teasing is too much!

I can hardly wait for it all.

[American Constitutionalist]

Makes you wonder what OTHER information the Russians have and are ready to leak....

[American Constitutionalist]

I guess that puts a CHILL on the Global Warming SCAM ...

[Redcloak]

It’s more believable that an insider leaked the files. However, if it really was the Russians, then God bless Russia! How ironic that American capitalism might be saved by former Soviets.

Let’s put Putin on Mt Rushmore???

Russia won’t put up with being hobbled by hooey...good for them!
