Nature Magazine, the international weekly journal of science, is at it again. In the 1940′s the magazine published opinion pieces in support of purging Jews from academia. Now they run opinion pieces in defense of Al Gore’s scam. Normal people recognize that the East-Anglia emails prove, beyond any shadow of doubt, that climatologists and politicians are the scum of the earth, conspiring to rob the rest of us to the benefit of their own cash flow. Now, make sure you are sitting down, the significance of the emails according to Nature is that:
- They were obtained “unethically.”
- They prove that scientists are human.
- They demonstrate that scientists are smart.
- They demonstrate that normal people are ignorant boobs.
- They are a call for decent people to support the East-Anglia fascists!
- They prove that “something is happening”
- You must give your money to poor people and scientists, or something.
- The “denialists” must be defeated!
- Scientists should avoid getting caught.
- The scam must go on.
This opinion piece in Nature falls into the “as the stomach turns” category.
Climatologists under pressure
Stolen e-mails have revealed no scientific conspiracy, but do highlight ways in which climate researchers could be better supported in the face of public scrutiny.
The e-mail archives stolen last month from the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia (UEA), UK, have been greeted by the climate-change-denialist fringe as a propaganda windfall (see page 551). To these denialists, the scientists’ scathing remarks about certain controversial palaeoclimate reconstructions qualify as the proverbial ‘smoking gun’: proof that mainstream climate researchers have systematically conspired to suppress evidence contradicting their doctrine that humans are warming the globe.
