Here are a few tasters. (So far, we can only refer to them as alleged emails because – though Hadley CRU’s director Phil Jones has confirmed the break-in to Ian Wishart at the Briefing Room – he has yet to fess up to any specific contents.) But if genuine, they suggest dubious practices such as:


Not 100% but I'd trust a hacker's information before I would trust a corrupted scientist's :)
It's so sad that monetary gain is the factor in all of this corruption that is leading to so much global misery.

Global warming is fucking bullshit, and we all knew it, yet here we are feeling good about recycling and hating humanity like we are some kind of fucking blight on the planet. Anyone who feels that humanity is a virus or that we are overpopulated, and wants to depopulate should do us all a favor and take the initiative and off themselves.

Wow, morons.

I read every last piece of this unsubstantiated op-ed from a biased source, and the data skew is unbelievable.

Trusting some rand who breaks the law without question is so very much your style that I can't think of much to say about it, so I'll move on.

I agree with you 100% that anyone who takes a dim view of humanity about this sort of thing is a twat who needs to get a reality check. There's no particular reason to depopulate at the moment and the Earth can hold a fair number of us rather comfortably. Depopulation is retarded indeed, and there's little reason to see people as being so bad.

But why the swipe at recycling? You like landfills or something?

This blog is a joke right? I mean the first sentence was "James Delingpole is a writer, journalist and broadcaster who is right about everything."

Seems like a decent counter-point to the whole thing.

I'm grabbing the files themselves right now. You can too, if you do a search for Hadley over in that one Bay.

Lol, I hate to say it, but I watched an episode of BULLSHIT where they supposedly debunked recycling. (The libertarian-magician-gigantous-maximus guy.)
They said it was counterintuitive to recycle because it cost more energy to recycle than to make something from scratch.
He probably did as well.
