The grants are pennies compared to what the carbon traders stand to make off data they wanted the scientists to produce.

True that. I’m not sure false information intended to move markets would be as easy to prosecute as a grant though. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen it prosecuted . . . and it’s done in financial markets often. Hard to prove. In the USA the prosecutors want a stock market case handed to them on a golden platter before they step into the chaos of that arena . . . otherwise they leave it up to the civil regulators who only really have power over people whose licenses to do business are in jeopardy.
