Emails reveal globo warmer consipracy to suppress evidence?

James Delingpole:

If you own any shares in alternative energy companies I should start dumping them NOW. The conspiracy behind the Anthropogenic Global Warming myth (aka AGW; aka ManBearPig) has been suddenly, brutally and quite deliciously exposed after a hacker broke into the computers at the University of East Anglia’s Climate Research Unit (aka Hadley CRU) and released 61 megabites of confidential files onto the internet. (Hat tip: Watts Up With That)

When you read some of those files – including 1079 emails and 72 documents – you realise just why the boffins at Hadley CRU might have preferred to keep them confidential. As Andrew Bolt puts it, this scandal could well be “the greatest in modern science”. These alleged emails – supposedly exchanged by some of the most prominent scientists pushing AGW theory – suggest:

Conspiracy, collusion in exaggerating warming data, possibly illegal destruction of embarrassing information, organised resistance to disclosure, manipulation of data, private admissions of flaws in their public claims and much more.

...

But perhaps the most damaging revelations – the scientific equivalent of the Telegraph’s MPs’ expenses scandal – are those concerning the way Warmist scientists may variously have manipulated or suppressed evidence in order to support their cause.

...
There is much more including excerpts from various emails. If true this will be very embarrassing for the globo warmers, but I predict they will ignore the facts and keep on spinning.

The NY Times coverage of the emails is here. It tends to give the side of those whose emails' were exposed, but I did not find their arguments all that convincing. But, then I am a skeptic about global warming as well as the purported consequences of global warming. Since I like warmer weather I am sure I can tolerate the increased temperature if it happens, and I think opening the Northwest Passage would be an economic benefit to the US and Europe. Canadians and Russians as well as Alaska would have more land available for farming. I have also seen stories indicating that the Shara desert would become green because of global warming.

I think the worse thing we could do is make a futile expensive attempt to stop it instead of adapting to it if it actually occurs. Putting control freaks in charge of the energy economy will be a disaster. Green jobs are a mirage at this point, and strangling the domestic production of oil, gas and coal by the Democrats is a gift to those who hate us.
