President Barack Obama and other world leaders are preparing for their international climate change summit in Copenhagen this month and their supporters are ignoring the evidence of fraud and corruption exposed in emails exchanged by leading "climate experts."
On Friday, Congressman Chaka
Fattah (D-PA), a member of the House Appropriations Committee and its
subcommittees that oversee funding for federal science, commerce, energy and
water development agencies, issued a statement regarding President Obama's
global warming diplomacy and upcoming appearance on December 9 at the United
Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen
In his statement, Rep. Fattah said, "Give President Obama credit for
changing the game on climate change. His environmental diplomacy will finally
place the United States at the forefront of efforts to save our planet."
"President Obama's pledge to reduce United States greenhouse gas emissions
is in line with targets in House legislation that I supported upon passage in
June. Those targets lay down a marker for the Senate. We in Congress owe it to
the American people and in fact the world community to send the President a
comprehensive, action-oriented bill- a necessary complement to his global
leadership in climate change," said the congressman.
Opponent's of so-called Cap-and-Trade environmental legislation are quick to
remind Obama's political allies that besides being destructive to the US
economy, such legislation is based -- wholly or partially -- on faulty or
manipulated science.
"These liberal-left politicians and activists see an opportunity to use
so-called global warming as a means to push forward their Marxist philosophy.
Part of the agenda is to take away wealth from the American people and give it
to Third-World countries," said political strategist Mike Baker.
The evidence provided by the intercepted emails of renowned climatologists has
created one of the biggest scandals in the last decade -- if not the century,
according to Baker.
Thousands of emails and documents allegedly "stolen" from the
University of East Anglia (UEA) and posted online indicate that researchers
massaged figures to mask the fact that world temperatures have been declining
in recent years.
These leaked emails provide compelling evidence that much of what is being
touted as scientific fact is in reality erroneous, fraudulent, and perhaps
criminal if participating scientists used their phony research to acquire
government grants.
Several emails contained discussions about how to best portray data sets, among
other topics. Scientists maintain their comments have been taken out of
context, but those who fiercely oppose the climate change thesis argue the
emails invalidate all the research.
Even the leftist newspaper Telegraph described its newsroom's shock over discovering
that the documents revealed scientists were "cooking the books," in
order to prove the earth is warming at an alarming rate.
What is even more shocking is that the authors of the emails are not just any
old bunch of academics. "Their importance cannot be overestimated, What we
are looking at here is the small group of scientists who have for years been
more influential in driving the worldwide alarm over global warming than any
others, not least through the role they play at the heart of the UN's
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)," stated Baker.
Baker points to the senders and recipients of the leaked emails saying that
they are a "who's who" of science. Their ranks include Doctors
Michael Mann, Ben Santer, Kevin Trenbeth, and even Al Gore's climate guru, Dr.
James Hansen. Gore used Hansen's studies in his Oscar-winning motion picture
An Inconvenient Truth.
Even after being caught with the "smoking gun," they and their
defenders have offered every possible excuse for concealing the background data
on which their findings and temperature records were based. Most incriminating
of all are the emails in which scientists are advised to delete large chunks of
data, which, when this is done after receipt of a freedom of information
request, is a criminal offense.
According to the emails,
scientists involved secretly discussed ways they could manipulate the
scientific peer review process so that skeptic could not get their articles and
papers published in scientific journals. skeptical papers had no access to
publication.
For example, when Dr. Thomas Wigley of the University Corporation for
Atmospheric Research complained that paleo-climatologist Hans von Storch was
responsible for “the publication of crap science ‘in order to stimulate
debate’” and that they “must get rid of von Storch” as an editor of the journal
Climate Research.
Armed with allegedly phony proof
against Storch, they succeeded in getting von Storch to resign.
The scandal is also raising questions about members of the news media being
complicit in covering up ClimateGate. For example, a BBC meteorologist and
climate change expert, Paul Hudson, admits he was sent the leaked emails a
month prior to their discovery by bloggers, radio and television talk hosts and
other interested parties.
Meanwhile in the US, major media outlets continue to ignore the story,
according to the media watchdog group, Accuracy in Media.
Since the emails where first discovered, ABC had only mentioned the story once,
on Sunday’s This Week with George Stephanopolous, and CBS and NBC still has
never reported the leaked emails on the morning or evening news, according to
AIM.
"Rather than focus on this huge scientific scandal, the timing of which is
critical considering the cap and trade legislation stalled in the Senate and
the upcoming Copenhagen meeting supposedly intended to combat global
warming—the mainstream media have done their best to ignore it.
"The scandal involves the destruction of data, the manipulation and
cover-up of data, and a plan to punish scientific journals that might dare to
publish the views of skeptics of the man made global warming theory. They
realize that a full airing of the facts would likely undermine an important
part of President Obama’s agenda, and expose the corruption of a significant
part of the scientific establishment," writes AIM's contributing editor Allie Duzett.
Alden Meyer, director of strategy and policy for the Union of Concerned
Scientists, said in an interview with the Washington Post from that Obama's
decision to go to Copenhagen suggests that "he'll be here at the end to
help seal the deal."
"The Washington Post is one of the culprits in this enormous cover
up," accuses Mike Baker. "And why aren't reporters flocking to Al
Gore for his reaction to this proof that climate change is a farce?"
For years, Al Gore has played the role of a modern day Paul Revere, sounding
the alarm regarding potential consequences of global warming in order to gain
public attention. Whenever there is a story related to environmental issues,
reporters quote Gore. In fact, Fox News Channel on Saturday morning reported
that conservatives in Hollywood are demanding that Gore be stripped of his
Oscar for his documentary that served as a vehicle to ratchet up global warming
fears.
"But putting aside the fact that Gore has honed his public speaking skills, the fly in the ointment is that he’s a fraud. Like the very global warming movement to which he has attached himself, he’s a snake oil salesman whose sales pitch is laced with scare tactics designed to push the public into embracing a radical, carbon-free agenda that rests on a combination of half-truths and outright fabrications," alleges AWR Hawkins, a conservative writer who holds a Ph.D. in military history from Texas Tech University and writes for Pajamas Media.
"And Gore’s fraudulence is not only seen in the fact that he pawns a lie, but also in the fact that he refuses to abide by the very lie he pawns," quipped Dr. Hawkins.
