Anthropogenic Global Warming A Lot Of Hot Air?

The internet was abuzz this morning when news broke that the computers at the University of East Anglia Climate Research Unit (aka - Hadley CRU) were hacked overnight and over one thousand emails and other documents were released into cyberspace.

Allegedly, many of the emails suggest that much of the AGW information disseminated by several prominent climatologists over the last decade or so either exaggerated the true impact of AGW or suppressed it altogether.

Uh oh.

  1. Does this mean Big Al the Polar Bear's Pal will have to give back his Nobel? His Oscar?

    If so, do you think those could be recycled to give The One his awards? What's that you say? No Oscar for The One this year? I'm sorry, I heard there was a new category at the Academy Awards this year, "dramatic fiction readings from a teleprompter", and I just assumed he had a lock on the award.

  2. GG--sorry man. As interesting as this is, it just doesn't fit the prevailing narrative. It will get some play on Fox News and it will provide ammo to bloggers in their PJ's (yes, I am at the moment, in my PJ's), but the plain, sad truth is that it is like the tree falling in the forest with no one to hear it. In this case, no one is listening.

  3. Perhaps; but now we know that the tree didn't fall because of AGW.
