An alleged series of attempted security breaches at the University of Victoria in the run-up to next week's Copenhagen summit on climate change is evidence of a larger effort to discredit climate science, says a renowned B.C. researcher.
Andrew Weaver, a University of Victoria scientist and key contributor to the Nobel prize-winning work of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, says there have been a number of attempted breaches in recent months, including two successful break-ins at his campus office in which a dead computer was stolen and papers were rummaged through.

This stuff is great. This is the way to counterattack all this left wing crap. Glenn Beck has done some fine work along these lines, going after Van Jones et al. Those Acorn Videos were another fine example. Good to see some guerrilla tactics being employed on our side for a change. We’re usually the ones bringing a plastic spoon to the knife fight.
Don’t you love it? This is an “..attempt to discredit”. It’s more like it’s an exposure of deceit. Or maybe that doesn’t compute :)
Haven’t heard of this guy. Maybe he’s looking for some press.
I call BS. Rather than an outsider, this is just as likely to be an insider trying to delete the university’s own embarrassing and fake data, and staging a burglary to mislead the cops.
There should be no need to break-in to access scientific data for peer review and to test the veracity of the conclusions drawn upon that data in the first place.

But maybe not tomorrow.
I think they have done a pretty fine job of discrediting themselves.
They dont need any help in that Department, their problem now is in making themselves credible again.
He he he he he he he ...........I’m lovin it. This is thier foundation and we are now seeing the cracks
It’s not break ins, it’s whistle-blowers ... If you have looked at the CRU files, you really had to know what you were doing, what you were looking for, take lots of time, to round up and download all those files. Think about it.
it’s inside jobs.
if ppl are telling thruth, there should be no fear of ppl looking at your science data
The ghost of Crichton strikes again!
In lib speak, whistleblowing is now known as ‘hacking’ or ‘attempts to discredit’.
Of course, that’s not what they called it when the NYT was trumpeting military intel far and wide during the Bush administration.
For people who claim to be outraged by hypocrisy, they certainly are guilty of it most of the time.
Funny stuff. There are almost as many speculations in that article as there are in Glowbull Warming theory.
Weaver’s name appears in 8 CRU e-mails, but none appear to have any of his direct input.
seems like this is starting to be a “The Emperor Has No Clothes” moment.
Everyone’s starting to say...wait a minute, I noticed it was cold, but I didn’t want to sound stupid by saying anything.
It's an information Freedom Fighter liberating the People's information.
Crichton deserve alot of credit imho for highlighting the corrupt nature of environment science. HE was the first to start the environmentalism is a religion meme
Can you say; Bye Bye Globull Warming
