The Hadley Climate Research Unit (CRU) in England has been hacked, exposing over one-thousand emails and 72 documents that prove the CRU is hiding and modifying data to show that climate change is a real threat. The Hadley CRU has confirmed that their data center had been breached. What's been exposed may incriminate the science of global warming and will likely affect the billions of dollars that mess Al Gore stands to make. But it doesn't answer the question asked on FOX News' Red Eye with Greg Gutfeld, "What's worse? Al Gore or 100 farting Joy Behar's?"
This scandal is the most damaging evidence against the lies that are man-made global warming. Some of the emails suggest collusion in exaggerating warming data, manipulation of data, private admissions of flaws in their public claims, and conspiracy. The emails contain a wide range of discussions, including what appear to be concerted efforts to withhold data. What's worse, though, are the conversations that mention potentially manipulating the data to "hide the decline" of temperatures seen in the last decade.
Climate change skeptics have been, for the most part, silenced by the media. People everywhere are told how humans are destroying this country and that changes need to be made in their living habits or else something terrible will happen. Al Gore won't even debate scientists that oppose his view.
Here are some of the emails that have been obtained by the hacker and released on the internet taken from The Examiner.
Modification of data to hide unwanted results:
"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) amd from 1961 for Keith’s to hide the decline."
Witholding of data:
"The skeptics seem to be building up a head of steam here! ... The IPCC comes in for a lot of stick. Leave it to you to delete as appropriate! Cheers Phil. PS I’m getting hassled by a couple of people to release the CRU station temperature data. Don’t any of you three tell anybody that the UK has a Freedom of Information Act !"
Using a website to control the message, hide dissent:
"Anyway, I wanted you guys to know that you’re free to use RC [RealClimate.org - A supposed neutral climate change website] Rein any way you think would be helpful.Gavin and I are going to be careful about what comments we screen through, and we’ll be very careful to answer any questions that come up to any extent we can. On the other hand, you might want to visit the thread and post replies yourself. We can hold comments up in the queue and contact you about whether or not you think they should be screened through or not, and if so, any comments you’d like us to include."
Witholding of data:
"If FOIA does ever get used by anyone, there is also IPR to consider as well. Data is covered by all the agreements we sign with people, so I will be hiding behind them."
