Darn That Global Warming

The head of Climate Research at England's University of East Anglia wrote, in a private email, about using a "trick" in his scientific data to "hide the decline" that he had found in global temperatures.  He and many of his colleagues are locked into a mindset that wants to squash any scientific voices that may disagree with their politically correct opinion about man-made global warming.

Another prominent man-made glabal warming advocate, and head scientist for Climate Analysis at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, wrote in an e-mail: “The fact is we can’t account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is a travesty that we can’t.”

The hacked emails are full of references to hiding or destroying data that doesn't support the concept of an alarming global warming problem..

I'm not suggesting that the 3.6 degrees outside my window screen, or my last three snowy winter posts, are any sort of evidence against global warming. I'm just saying that the real travesty is that scientists will compromise intellectual honesty in order to advance a political agenda.
