Some choice quotes from climate gate (the leaked internal CRU emails) ⚓

First person account here. Who needs King Bush to undermine science when the scientists are doing it themselves?

“I can’t see either of these papers being in the next IPCC report. Kevin and I will keep them out somehow – even if we have to redefine what the peer-review literature is !”

“I’ve just completed Mike’s Nature trick of adding in the real temps to each series for the last 20 years (ie from 1981 onwards) amd from 1961 for Keith’s to hide the decline.”

“The fact is that we can’t account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is a travesty that we can’t. The CERES data published in the August BAMS 09 supplement on 2008 shows there should be even more warming: but the data are surely wrong.”

“If anything, I would like to see the climate change happen, so the science could be proved right, regardless of the consequences.”
