The Emails of East Anglia and more ...
Thursday/03 December 2009
I toured the web looking for the
opinions of scientists on the hacked and revealed emails of East
Anglia's climate researchers. Scientists can find nothing untoward
in the emails. A few non-scientists are having orgasms taking
quotes out of context though.
I spoke to one person who has read all of these emails. That would be Elizabeth May and I hereby refer you to her blog post on the topic.
I spoke with Elizabeth May about them last Saturday before, yes it's true, going in the Sidney BC Santa Claus parade. Elizabeth was in a convertible Smart Car with a single string of LED lights strung around it. There was a bristol board hand-lettered sign on each side, "Merry Christmas from Elizabeth May". A decision had been taken prior to the parade not to mention The Green Party and use the event as a political stage. My gig was to walk beside the car and shine a flashlight on the bristol board sign so it could be seen — the parade began in the darkness of 5PM. So that's that. Do read her blog about the emails.
You might want to look at this Nature editorial on the stolen emails.
The DeSmogBlog is another useful resource about the climate controversy. Here is its RSS feed.
We are into the homestretch of the Copenhagen Summit. Keep the pressure on the politicians because the unfortunate thing is that this critically important event will be a political poker game rather than a united search for a solution to a killer problem. Killer indeed.
Has anyone noticed that CBC is not covering Copenhagen and the climate controversy very well, with the exception of Bob McDonald of Quirks and Quarks and Anna Maria Tremonte of The Current? Is it just me or have I missed some excellent coverage. Has Peter Mansbridge been doing items that I have missed? Certainly, the amount of reporting on the CBC website does not reflect the prominence of the climate change crisis for humanity.
Write in with your views. The comment section is open to all who can be reasonably couth, or if that is not a real word, not uncouth.
