“Al Gore didn’t invent the Internet. But he did make up Global Warming“. This is Maggie Thauersköld, Sweden’s most prominent climate-sceptic blogger, pictured after my Nov 18th Climate-Sceptic Conference in Brux. Find her at www.theclimatescam.se

Roger, the Hadley Centre has been hacked – emails and documents are available that show the AGW to be the scam that it is.
This is going to seriously dent the Warmist fanatics’ case!
See for yourself!

Nice to see someone being so up front with her views.
@Fausty Why isn’t the Hadley hack making the MSM?
You’re right Fausty. This is ClimateGate. See http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/jamesdelingpole/100017393/climategate-the-final-nail-in-the-coffin-of-anthropogenic-global-warming/
We’re close to winning the argument. Can’t wait for Booker tomorrow!
The reason for it not making the mainstream media is that the allegations of scientific fraudulent behaviour are unfounded.
I think James Delingpole let his ideologically held views run faster than his ability to check facts by taking climate scientists comments out of context.
Interesting that our MEPs condone the illegal hacking of peoples email addresses and the distortion of the contents.
Lets take one of the alleged frauds and examine it:
“Phil Jones in discussing the presentation of temperature reconstructions stated that “I’ve just completed Mike’s Nature trick of adding in the real temps to each series for the last 20 years (ie from 1981 onwards) and from 1961 for Keith’s to hide the decline.” The paper in question is the Mann, Bradley and Hughes (1998) Nature paper on the original multiproxy temperature reconstruction, and the ‘trick’ is just to plot the instrumental records along with reconstruction so that the context of the recent warming is clear. Scientists often use the term “trick” to refer to a “a good way to deal with a problem”, rather than something that is “secret”, and so there is nothing problematic in this at all. As for the ‘decline’, it is well known that Keith Briffa’s maximum latewood tree ring density proxy diverges from the temperature records after 1960 (this is more commonly known as the “divergence problem”–see e.g. the recent discussion in this paper) and has been discussed in the literature since Briffa et al in Nature in 1998 (Nature, 391, 678-682). Those authors have always recommend not using the post 1960 part of their reconstruction, and so while ‘hiding’ is probably a poor choice of words (since it is ‘hidden’ in plain sight), not using the data in the plot is completely appropriate, as is further research to understand why this happens.”
Would you guys trust data from tree rings more than you would trust thermometers. If not, then you would perform exactly the same ‘trick’.
