Wow, it's not often that I see such a flawed blog....The guy is pretending to support climate science, but almost every point he makes is 180 degrees from reality....He's a poe.

Here you go people, each time he tries to push down the comments so you can't see the link, I will continue to provide it.

Again, he thinks you are too stupid to read on your own and understand the comments in these emails. I don't think you are, I think you can understand them just fine.

And here I thought spam was frowned on in this forum.....It's crap from Anthony Watts folks, best ignored.

I heard last night that section of the Larsen Ice Shelf in Antarctica broke off or calved, it's the size of Rhode Island. I haven't been able to locate the text but this has been imminent for some time. It's on average 1000 feet thick and 2000 square miles.


NASA's satellite ICEsat-1 that studies the pole went out in 2009 and the new satellite planned for launched in 2018 may be dropped due to proposed budget cuts. It's difficult to study from aircraft because of the size so satellites are important.

No. But 'U.N. mumbo jumbo" makes quite clear what the real agenda is.

Today I found out that the UN is a part of the scientific community. Learn something new every day.

Climatologists have no control over people who might use AGW to push a political agenda. Abuse of legitimate science by ideologues doesn't invalidate the underlying science.

There's ample evidence that smoking is dangerous to human health, regardless of the agendas that may or may not arise from that fact.

Bad logic: "Anti-smoking organizations want to ban smoking in bars, therefore smoking is perfectly healthy."

Bad logic: "Various organizations want to eliminate coal mining, therefore CO2 is not a greenhouse gas that contributes to AGW."

Again, notice the position of the poster. They "claim" the link is opinions from Anthony Watts, this is source dismissal attempt that doesn't want you people to realize that the links are all to the original content of the emails.

Complete Climategate Emails and Data

This link takes you to a collected list of the most troubling topics in the climatgate 2.0 emails, as well links to the climategate 1.0 emails and data.

Go ahead and click on a given topic link and it will take you to Tom Nelson's blog with the entire email shown for the relevant linked topic.

All of these can be verified to their original sources.


You see, unlike the poster above, I don't need to appeal to authority, I would rather everyone hear the information from the source and decide for themselves while posters like the above think you people to be too stupid to understand and you should worship at the feet of their appeals to authority.

Enjoy the links people, some are extremely damning, but these people will lie, twist, and manipulate to deny it. Talk about "real" denial.

The emails are misconstrued by anybody who doesn't understand what the scientists were specifically talking about. Even if there was any shenanigans going on(which there wasn't), some emails from one university hardly shows that global warming is false and lied about across the board. Quite the opposite, there are bodies upon bodies of evidence supporting it.

Obviously these emails for the uninitiated and uneducated have given them something to cling onto.
