EPA Scandal - RELEVANT FOR CLIMATE BILL VOTE

Competitive Enterprise Institute ^ | June 25, 2009 | Richard Morrison

[Nipfan]

Washington, D.C., June 26, 2009—The Competitive Enterprise Institute is today making public an internal study on climate science which was suppressed by the Environmental Protection Agency. Internal EPA email messages, released by CEI earlier in the week, indicate that the report was kept under wraps and its author silenced because of pressure to support the Administration’s agenda of regulating carbon dioxide. The report finds that EPA, by adopting the United Nations’ 2007 “Fourth Assessment” report, is relying on outdated research and is ignoring major new developments. Those developments include a continued decline in global temperatures, a new consensus that future hurricanes will not be more frequent or intense, and new findings that water vapor will moderate, rather than exacerbate, temperature.

New data also indicate that ocean cycles are probably the most important single factor in explaining temperature fluctuations, though solar cycles may play a role as well, and that reliable satellite data undercut the likelihood of endangerment from greenhouse gases. All of this demonstrates EPA should independently analyze the science, rather than just adopt the conclusions of outside organizations.

[Nipfan]

This is dynamite. A full draft copy of Dr. Carlin's paper, which was suppressed by the EPA, is linked in the story and it is truly devastating, both in terms of content and as proof of the appalling dodging and weaving which has been going on to support this travesty.

This should be sent to EVERY member of congress immediately because then they will have no excuse but to at least postpone any decision on the bill for further consideration.

This is also a gigantic can of worms and scandal at the EPA which, inevitably, would also drag in the IPCC. In other words, it needs to be spread far and wide.

[NoobRep]

Everyone needs to email this to their Congressmen as urgent before tomorrow’s vote. Get it done people!

The Michael Jackson media blackout will prevent any chance of reporting on this. I doubt it would get reported anyway by the MSM.

Passage of this Bill will break the backs of hardworking Americans. Ironically, it will also be the begining of the end for the leftist environmental movement. Eventually the truth will come out regarding the global warming hoax and it's cost to America. I predict that the backlash will be tremendous.

BTTT

[icwhatudo]

The skinny:

The EPA tried to bury a report that shows the studies the EPA is relying on for global warming are BS.

The emails basically say “Its too late and this info will only hurt our agenda. Don’t publicize this report!”

[KTM rider]

Can't they just say the EPA rejected the Carlin submittal ?

what is the criteria for acceptance ?

I noticed that the N.O.A.A. is still on the Climate change bandwagon

[rfp1234]

Cool! The general Congress web site is getting so much traffic I can’t get through. Let’s keep up the great work, all night long.

This needs to be sent to Drudge and Rush.
