Research which heaped doubt on the rate of global warming was deliberately suppressed by scientists because it was “less than helpful” to their cause, it was claimed last night.

In an echo of the infamous “Climategate” scandal at the University of East Anglia, one of the world’s top academic journals rejected the work of five experts after a reviewer privately denounced it as “harmful”.

Why is this not surprising?

These Religion of Enviromaniacism's gatekeepers and so many of their ardent followers remaind me of the jackals in The Omen. Rabid in their defense of their faith and savior.

There is more, but not from our Socialist Propagandizing Media. Which is no surprise.
a German physicist, Rupert Darwall, likened the reaction to Bengtsson’s decision to join the foundation advisory board to the reaction of someone joining the KKK.

“In their persecution of an aged colleague who stepped out of line and their call for scientists to be subject to a faith test, 21st-century climate scientists have shown less tolerance than a 16th-century monarch. There is something rotten in the state of climate science,” said Darwall.

Another expert, Judith Curry, said such disgraceful behavior “has the potential to do as much harm to climate science as did the Climategate emails.”

The emails, hacked from the University of East Anglia Climate Research Unit several years ago, showed climate scientists admitting that there was no sudden spike in global warming and exposed their frantic efforts to cover up evidence.

Bengtsson is a former director of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology in Hamburg, Germany, and author of more than 200 papers.

In Bengtsson’s letter of resignation, he said: “If this [pressure] is going to continue I will be unable to conduct my normal work and will even start to worry about my health and safety. I see therefore no other way out therefore than resigning from GWPF.

“I had not expected such an enormous world-wide pressure put at me from a community that I have been close to all my active life,” he said.

The only thing thats useless are the warmist astrologists screaming that the sky is falling.

And those libruuul loons who claim that the earth rotates on an axis!

Good that there are people like you who can tell them scientists where to stick their fancy highschool diploma.

The irony here is that the data shows that the earth does indeed rotate on an axis, the "data" used by warmists is flawed and does not even match their own models, and they continue to skew the data for more funding.

Maybe you think things are different in Germany, but here skepticism is the essence of science. A hypothesis that does not stand up to the data is discredited.

The irony of your comparison is that modern warmists are the ones who actually are clinging to a belief in absence of the evidence. Id recommend that you look into some basic literature on the scientific process, and then maybe you can check back in.

So you know how to interpret climate studies? Where did you gain that knowlege? From observing flies in a swamp?

lol

A man talks as if he knows science. A theory, is established when it shows to be valid in field testing, it is deiscredited whn field testing brings different results. That is science!

You probably dont even know the term used to describe what the scientific method is, you probably never heard of Karl Popper, you probably dont even know what peer review is.

And even more likely, you are one of those people who believes that we are the result of 6000 years of incest by a man and a woman created out of the mans ribb.

What is a warminst? Did you dream that up, or your preacher?

Evidence is available in abundance.

I know more about science than something like you could ever dream to know. Once you figure out how gravity works, you can come back, and I might feel kind enought to explain the barry field to you!

You are speaking to an aspiring scientist in the field of statistical maths, who comes from a family of scientists!!!!!

Someone like me is in no need of lecture on science by some swamp people!

You mean, like Der Globale Erwärmung Armee that have illustrated themselves to be thug-like?

Why the heavy hand with a scientist who challenges their ideas? Why the fear of his fancy highschool diploma and years as a scientist?

You would think, Der Globale Erwärmung Armee would be able to take on challenges to their "science" with... science. But noooooooo...

Instead we have Der Globale Erwärmung Armee getting the populus excited to the point of having a scientist fear for his safety.

As a German, and hopefully one who has at least learned some of your history, perhaps from watching N-TV or N24, does it not smack just a wee bit of something that happened in your native land before it was occupoed and civilized by Allied Forces? The heavy hand that preceded it, being my focus. To me there are some parallels. Shutting down opposition. Claiming to know the truth (the GW is settled science), and then persecuting those who upset the cart.

Back in the day, it would have been wonderful if there had been an uprising to stop the tide of lunacy. Same is true for today... but it seems scientists on GW have revealed themselves to be somewhat similar to a certain dark age in European history. Narrow and thuggish.

That is a US phenomenon.

Mainly because in Germany, we dont let oil companies influence scientific data through money.

Unlike in your country, where you legalised corruption.

You dont even understand sarcasm.

What is "Der Globale Erwärmung Armee"???????

Armee is a male noun in German and need a "Die".

"Erwärmung" in this use as a noun would require a "der"

And "Armee" would be required to seat infront of the "Armee" to make any sence whatsovever!

"Die Armee der globalen Erwärmung"

Now go back to raping your own language.

Instead we have Der Globale Erwärmung Armee getting the populus excited to the point of having a scientist fear for his safety.

Conspiracy wohohooooo

What an idiotic appeal on the basis of emotion.

Now explain how you conspiracy is supposedly warning me from the nazis?

I see more similarity between the nazis and people who blow up abortion kliniks, murder homosexuals, say that black people would be better off in slavery and believe women should be chained to the kitchens.

You did note there was a second post below the OP. Non? It goes into a little more detail. Golly Geez, there is a link to the story too!!! One that fills in even more of the story. How bout them apples?

Looking forward to your deep insights about the Global Warming Faktion, their thug-like tactics, and attempts to deny science from being published.

Transparency International’s Global corruption barometer 2013 reveals that political parties and businesses are the most corrupt institutions in Germany... 11% of the respondents claim to have been asked to pay a bribe at one point in their life and only few of those said that they had refused to pay the bribe
Corruption in Germany - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The German government is known for it's back door deals. No pun intended.

Having watched a few shows of prominent Germans writing their own language and failing miserably in most instances (you know the show)... I'll take your complaint as a compliment. ROTFLOL... it seems you know what Die Armee der globalen Erwärmung is and... you seem a little pissed by it being so accurately portayed.

Conspiracy wohohooooo
Threatening a prominent climate scientist, having him fear for his health and safety doesn't bother you? Of course not. You seem to be illustrating that your position is more along the lines of a good'ol goose stepping member of Die Armee.

Hard to believe that went over your head, but it obviously did. It was a comparison of heavy handed tactics against those that threaten a certain party.

For criminal perpatrators we have courts and prisons. And your reference to Bundy shows your ignorance. He never stated they were better off as slaves. And your bit about women is interesting. A fantasy of yours perhaps, as I don't know of any society that does it. The closest are Muslims, who deny women just about everything. Come to think of it, these climate "scientists" seem like fundamentalist Muslims. When one attacks their religion, they show no mercy.

Evidence of what?
When you peel back the layers of the predictions by the IPCC, what do they really predict?
The basic thing is that when CO2 levels double from 280 ppm to 560 ppm,
we should see an equilibrium climate response of between 1.5 and 4.5 C.
To get to this large range, they blended accepted Physics, (CO2s direct response) with
an unquantified concept called Forcing, which is really open loop feedbacks.
Considering that the observed temperature increase for the last 133 years,
is .8 C, and the direct response of CO2 is 51% complete, some of the supposed
forcing should be readily apparent.
Of the .8 C observed, .6 C is attributable to the direct response of CO2 1.2 C.
This leaves only .2 C, in the last 133 years, for all unknown inputs, both natural and anthropogenic.
I made a quick graph showing the limits, low, mid and High, of the predictions,
along with the observed data. not a lot of room for panic.

I am more than familiar with Germany, and the mindset there. You cannot escape references to Klima Erwarmung... they insert it everywhere.

I recall a slow moving system in southern Germany/Austria, and the day before the storm the weather babe explained it so. Well, the storm dumped a mass of water and the autobahn between Innsbruck and Munich was shut down (Austrian side). Of course there were problems all over the south. Then came the flash flood of those blaming global warming. It was a slow moving weather event... but... Zee Propagandists couldn't pass up a chance to propagandize.

I can cut off a few fingers and my thumb and count the number of times you see someone, anyone voice opposition to Klima Erwarmung in public. Wonder why? There is a price to pay if you stray... as the scientist proved.
 
re: Scientists in cover-up of ‘damaging’ climate view[W:38]

Do you think WND is a credible source?

Let me give you a tip. Open your mind and read things and sources you disagree with.

You see, I was once a "Very Liberal" Lib, but one with an open mind. My goal was to discover what was the best for society over the long haul. After years, I learned the Left relied on deception. They cannot be honest about who they are, where they want to go, or the results of their idiotic policies. Though I disagree with the Left, and their leadership is largely disgusting, I still read and listen to their stuff. I was a listener of Air Amerika... one of the 7 listeners in their audience.

Give it a try for a few years. Listen to Limbaugh and Levin, read sources that you find unpalatable at the moment. After a few years you'll be a more rounded individual... and... You might surprise yourself.

One thing about some of the posters in this thread that is breathtaking? The level of stupidity and self imposed ignorance some here are really really proud of themselves for. Bloody morons.


EDIT: By the way you two geniuses of towering intellect. Just checked WND, as of 9:00 AM 5/16/14 WND is not even covering this story. Maybe later in the day one of you two geniuses can check back and see if they have added the story? Then you can alert the other deep thinker to the fact, so he can ape your banal stupidity?:failpail:

Don't use facts and figures to back yourself up with.

warmists only use appeal to emotion and fear to back their arguments.

If we ever got to the point that what they claim would happen we would be dead from CO2 poisening anyway.
at a 5% concentration we would start feeling co2 dizziness and other mild effects.
at 10% concentration you would need a breathing machine to walk outside.
at 15% all oxygen breathing life would cease to function you would require constant oxygen to walk anywhere.

you are going to have more to worry about if what they say is true than a few degree's of tempature increase.

however from what i have seen a .8 degree increase is nothing out of the norm from a normal warming trend and .8 over 133 years is nothing.

I apologize for using actual Science to show the need for panic is overstated.
I think it is medium unlikely we can ever achieve the first doubling of CO2 to 560 ppm,
as the cost of hydrocarbon extraction will exceed the alternatives, before we get there.
