MAN-BEAR-PIG Is Dead!… Emails Prove Global Warming Junk Science Conspiracy (Updated)
Gateway Pundit ^ | 11/20/09 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 11/20/2009 2:11:19 PM PST by American Dream 246

GLOBAL WARMING JUNK SCIENCE PROVEN A CONSPIRACY—- ManBearPig Is Finally Dead!

I’m serial! Recently “discovered” classified emails and files prove that the junk scientists behind the global warming movement knowingly perpetrated a fraud on the global community.

The files were posted on the internet– HERE. The Telegraph reported:

If you own any shares in alternative energy companies I should start dumping them NOW. The conspiracy behind the Anthropogenic Global Warming myth (aka AGW; aka ManBearPig) has been suddenly, brutally and quite deliciously exposed after a hacker broke into the computers at the University of East Anglia’s Climate Research Unit (aka Hadley CRU) and released 61 megabites of confidential files onto the internet. (Hat tip: Watts Up With That)

When you read some of those files – including 1079 emails and 72 documents – you realise just why the boffins at Hadley CRU might have preferred to keep them confidential. As Andrew Bolt puts it, this scandal could well be “the greatest in modern science”. These alleged emails – supposedly exchanged by some of the most prominent scientists pushing AGW theory – suggest:

Conspiracy, collusion in exaggerating warming data, possibly illegal destruction of embarrassing information, organised resistance to disclosure, manipulation of data, private admissions of flaws in their public claims and much more.

One of the alleged emails has a gentle gloat over the death in 2004 of John L Daly (one of the first climate change sceptics, founder of the Still Waiting For Greenhouse site), commenting:



“In an odd way this is cheering news.”

But perhaps the most damaging revelations – the scientific equivalent of the Telegraph’s MPs’ expenses scandal – are those concerning the way Warmist scientists may variously have manipulated or suppressed evidence in order to support their cause.

Here are a few tasters. (So far, we can only refer to them as alleged emails because – though Hadley CRU’s director Phil Jones has confirmed the break-in to Ian Wishart at the Briefing Room – he has yet to fess up to any specific contents.)

There’s more at the link. This is the scientific scandal of the century.

Related… Scientists baffled after global temperatures refuse to rise.

More… Confirmed: The emails and files posted are legitimate.

Andrew Bolt is following the story… “So the 1079 emails and 72 documents seem indeed evidence of a scandal involving most of the most prominent scientists pushing the man-made warming theory – a scandal that is one of the greatest in modern science.”

And this… “This is clearly not the work of some hacker, but of an insider who’s now blown the whistle.”

The Climate Depot has several updates.

One of the junk science perpetrators speaks out:

Professor Michael Mann, director of Pennsylvania State University’s Earth System Science Centre and a regular contributor to the popular climate science blog Real Climate, features in many of the email exchanges. He said: “I’m simply not going to comment on the content of illegally obtained emails.

However, I will say this: both their theft and, I believe, any reproduction of the emails that were obtained on public websites, etc, constitutes serious criminal activity. I’m hoping that the perpetrators and their facilitators will be tracked down and prosecuted to the fullest extent the law allows.”

I remember taking a course in meteorology at Penn State. It was an elective, useful in learning about the weather and it was fun. Little did I know that this tiny Department in the 60’s would someday become the center of such a giant scam.

The PSU Alumni Association to this day hounds me for donations. After this fiasco, it will be impossible to give them anything. We need to fund our own schools, newspapers and tv stations,- and soon.

I’m thinking they may have been inspired by the ACORN tapes. Who knows but possibly a trend here to do the right thing. What a wonderful change for humanity.

Didja see The Guardian’s George Monbiot’s “Royal Flush” of “climate deniers”? These people are getting hysterical.

Link to it is on the page you linked to.

Basically when I see any post without caps and paragraphs, and with “4 U” type shorthands embedded throughout, I envision a faggy little 14-year-old gamer comiserating about a man crush to another little fag just like him.

To: All

I just posted to another thread discussing the reporting on this issue.

When I got up this morning, went to the following web sites:

CNN
Washington Post
Boston Globe
Boston Herald
New York Times
LA Times
Wall Street Journal
Arizona Star
San Francisco Chronicle
Denver Post
Miami Herald
Chicago Sun-Times
Kansas City Star
Seattle Times
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Drudge
MSNBC
ABC News
CBS News

At each website, I did a search for the following words, each search done independently as a single word: CLIMATE, GLOBAL, WARM, HOAX, EMAIL, HACK.

Of all the websites there were no relevant hits at all except for TWO sites. One was Drudge, and the other was the New York Times, which had a surprisingly balanced article.

Folks, I think this is one of the most significant stories to see the light of day in our lives.

Some may think that is hyperbole, but the fact is, those pushing climate legislation are depending on this “science” to bolster their arguments and garner public support.

They teach it in colleges and ridicule any student or colleague who disagrees.

They brainwash little kids and high schoolers with it, the little kids weep for the poor polar bears stranded on ice floes, and the High School valedictorians speak about how it is the most important thing in their future.

Politicians base their campaigns on it, an nearly all politicians, even staunch conservatives (whoever they are) feel the need to genuflect at the altar of Global Warming during campaigns and legislative sessions, lest they be labeled a global warming “hater” or “denier”.

Climate legislation is being pushed by the UN and many others around the globe, and the endgame of these movements is global legislation, loss of sovereignty, and taxes or sanctions on those who don’t comply.

This legislation, not only our “Cap and Trade” but all other variants of it that you see anywhere else in the world, has the capability to reach down into the very basic fabric of our lives. Energy is going to stop being a commodity that can be produced, bought, sold and traded and profited from, to something that is going to be used as a tool to control the economic engines of countries around the world as a governor to equalize consumption and “opportunity”.

To illustrate this, legislation won’t be applied equally. Some countries such as the USA, Canada, Japan and Western Europe will be held to legislation, while other countries such as China, India and a host of third world countries will not.

This is not meant to allow third world or other developing countries to “catch up”. This is meant to slow countries like the USA down.

Where have we heard that “we have X amount of the world’s population, but use Y amount of the world’s energy”? Sound familiar to anyone? They are going to use this to hold countries like the USA to a quota, that is, “you have this percent of the world’s population, you can use this much of the world’s energy.”

But I assure you, it won’t stop there. First it is energy, then it will be water. Then things like iron ore, titanium. And it will end up with food.

And when it ends up with food, as it surely will over time, then where will we be? As my tagline notes, we will be down the Road to Serfdom. The key issue here is going to be a loss of sovereignty. And if we give it up piecemeal, one day we will wake up to discover there is nothing that separates us from tyrants in other parts of the world who wish only to dominate and control.

Our Constitution won’t separate us.

Our government won’t separate us.

Our way of life won’t separate us.

Two oceans won’t separate us.

So I don’t think I am being melodramatic here. And to get back to my main point: Only ONE media entity “of note” covered this on the main page of their web site: The New York Times. Only one. And Drudge had a little blurb on it.

Is is just me, or does anyone else think there is something wrong with this situation?

Note: I will accept that perhaps the exposing of these emails in and of itself is not such a big deal as a news story. But I will point out a parallel that hopefully is relevant:

Nobody noticed the small blurb in the July 18, 1972 issue of the Washington Post about a burglary at the Watergate Hotel in Washington, DC the night before.

Michael Mann (emails throughout!) is the lead author of the latest IPCC report and the developer of the (now debunked) “hockey-stick” graph of near-term temperature increase.

He is a BIG FISH in the small pond of CACA*

Contrary to some recent news articles stating that these files have been pulled off the Net, they are still out there. I just downloaded the 62MB zip file myself. Lots of emails in there.

The Day Global Warming Stood Still (But Warming Lies Didn’t)
Investor’s Business Daily ^ | November 20, 2009 | IBD editorial staff

Posted on Friday, November 20, 2009 5:01:45 PM by raptor22

Climate Change: As scientists confirm the earth has not warmed at all in the past decade, others wonder how this could be and what it means for Copenhagen. Maybe Al Gore can Photoshop something before December.

It will be a very cold winter of discontent for the warm-mongers. The climate show-and-tell in Copenhagen next month will be nothing more than a meaningless carbon-emitting jaunt, unable to decide just whom to blame or how to divvy up the profitable spoils of climate change hysteria.

The collapse of the talks coupled with the decision by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to put off the Kerry-Boxer cap-and-trade bill, the Senate’s version of Waxman-Markey, until the spring thaw has led Oklahoma Sen. James Inhofe, the leading Republican on the Environment and Public Works Committee, to declare victory over Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., and the triumph of observable fact over junk science.

“I proudly declare 2009 as the ‘Year of the Skeptic,’ the year in which scientists who question the so-called global warming consensus are being heard,” Inhofe said to Boxer in a Senate speech. “Until this year, any scientist, reporter or politician who dared raise even the slightest suspicion about the science behind global warming was dismissed and repeatedly mocked.”

Inhofe added: “Today I have been vindicated.”

The Ada (Oklahoma) Evening News quotes Inhofe: “So when Barbara Boxer, John Kerry and all the left get up there and say, ‘Yes. We’re going to pass a global warming bill,’ I will be able to stand up and say, ‘No, it’s over. Get a life. You lost. I won,’” Inhofe said.

I can’t get on the site as there is so much demand for it.

I want to send a hard copy of this and a link to a younger relative, who became a traitor by joining the greens and even voted for 0b0z0 last year.

His green treason has driven his parents nuts, outrage from his siblings and wife’s siblings, and dismay from his uncles like me.

I warned him last November, he had better have an exit plan from the so called Green Company, he and friends set up.

I’ll try to get on this in a bit. Downtown working right now. Like you, i have been emailing each and every article, link, blog, etc., on this. i have even managed to “turn” a couple former greenies into leaning the other way skeptics.

Like the Telegraph article said, the MSM won’t touch this-—too many vested interests and they have already emptied the 50 gallon kool-aid barrel, so it’s too late for them. We’ll just have to keep RUINING THEIR ALREADY NON-EXISTENT CREDIBILITY.

If there was any doubt that the Nobel committee is a fraudulent political org before when they named Barry Soetoro, this should nail their smarmy coffin shut, especially in Europe where the carbon taxes have been pouring from the deceived citizens for too long already.

Michael Mann, you should be tried for fraud, green treason against America and crimes against humanity for your part in the B$ of pushing Gorebull Warming.
