Very interesting. Previously we had a hacker named Gary McKinnon who break into computer networks owned by NASA, the Department of Defense and the U.S. military only to find confidential information about a ufo. Now we have an anonymous hacker going directly to the global warming debate by breaking into computer networks research organization in the world's leading global warming.
As we know, the progress of science depends on complete and accurate data, global warming science is no exception. But in recent days, the world was surprised by the disclosure of inconsequential practices conducted by researchers of global warming, of course I mean the research pro Al Gore.
Andrew Bolt, a writer even said that this scandal could be the biggest scandal in the history of modern science.
Not long ago we posed a daunting news that polar ice will melt in 20 years total. Then not long after, the IPCC (the United Nations on climate change) through its chairman, Dr RK Pachauri released a statement that the ice in the Himalayas will melt in the year 2035 total. Even thought, the melting ice can be much faster if "we do not do anything".It seems ahead of the Copenhagen climate conference to be held in December, scientists pro Al Gore became more common to say "predictions" about equal to K. disaster movie "2012" you just watch. In other words, these scientists have created a "doomsday prophecy 2012" new.
Meanwhile, scientists in other parts of the world, which usually have limited the technology, can only receive data at face value of the western world. Yes, perhaps many of us who do not know that climate change data that we know (and reported by the media) was not derived from the research that we do ourselves. Most of the data is coming from a place called the Climate Research Unit (CRU) at the University of East Anglia (UAE), UK. The organization also supplies data for researchers IPCC and Al Gore the other pros.
Well, in a heated debate between the pros and cons scientist Al Gore is a hacker has finally decided to get into the arena. Emails from CRU are compromised are published on the internet by a hacker who calls himself "FOIA".
In the email, the researchers who have discovered the same ideology of data agreed to cover the global warming that does not comply with their claims. Email this has been confirmed to the CRU, and they acknowledge that the content of emails that appear in the mass media have descended from their servers.
One email that obtained from a conversation between Prof. Phil Jones, head of the CRU and Prof. Michael E Mann of Pennsylvania State University. These two men are the main supporters of Al Gore in the matter of global warming.
In one conversation, Prof. Jones suggested to Prof. Mann to do a "trick" to change the climate data in each series to hide a decline in global temperatures.
"I just use a trick from Mike to add new data on the actual data of each series in the last 20 years and from 1961 to hide the decline (temperature)."
After the scandal was uncovered, Prof Mann explained to the New York Times that scientists commonly use the word "trick" to refer to how to best solve a problem and does not mean something secret (?).
In another email, Prof Jones also said that he had better remove the data that are inconsistent with their claims rather than sending the data to other researchers. Prof Jones also encourages Prof. Mann to do the same thing.
In 2009, the CRU got a lot of criticism for refusing to release data used to create a surface temperature of Earth's history report. Requests from researchers and other scientists have been rejected and in some cases, the maker of the report acknowledge that the original data used is gone.
Email the above seems to confirm everything.
In addition to the conversations that occur between these two professors, who had broken into other email is an email from Tim Osborn, one of the other professors at the CRU. In his email, Prof. Osborn to discuss with colleagues on how to cut the data to hide the downward trend in global climate temperature.
And in another email, Prof Prof Osborn Mann asked not to forward the data it sends to other people because the data that the researchers confirmed the theory of anti-global warming Al Gore.
Not only that, one of the email also contains a commentary on the death of John L Daly, a researcher opponent Al Gore. The commentary reads, "In a strange way, the real news is good news."
Given this latest development, Senator James Inhofe's famous version of the anti-global warming Al Gore also has demanded the U.S. Congress to investigate the Pennsylvania State University and several other universities are known to be involved in the falsification of this data.
Earlier, not long after the prophecy about the melting of ice in the Himalayas was released by the IPCC, the Indian government through the environment ministry has released a statement which wants an independent study on the condition of snow in the Himalayas. Indian government data used today is the data coming from western researchers.
Given the large number of emails successfully broken, then the contents of this email will be examined further by other researchers to find evidence of another lie. If found evidence of high-level conspiracy, then the case is of course really will be the greatest scientific scandal in the world.
Is Himalayan snow will melt in the year 2035 total? The answer to this question will depend on the objectivity of a study of the Himalayan snow.
Those who are not knowledgeable will be very easily deceived. So the question is when can we have the knowledge and technology of the caliber of the world so that we can decide for ourselves whether this world is warming or cooling.
Knowledge is power, right?
