University of East Anglia Statements
University of East Anglia website ^ | Nov. 24, 2009 | Professor Trevor Davies

Posted on 11/24/2009 9:09:51 PM PST by 4horses+amule

The University of East Anglia has released statements from Prof Trevor Davies, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Research, Prof Phil Jones, head of the Climatic Research Unit, and from CRU.

Statement from Professor Trevor Davies, Pro-Vice-Chancellor, Research

The publication of a selection of the emails and data stolen from the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) has led to some questioning of the climate science research published by CRU and others. There is nothing in the stolen material which indicates that peer-reviewed publications by CRU, and others, on the nature of global warming and related climate change are not of the highest-quality of scientific investigation and interpretation. CRU’s peer-reviewed publications are consistent with, and have contributed to, the overwhelming scientific consensus that the climate is being strongly influenced by human activity. The interactions of the atmosphere, oceans, land, and ice mean that the strongly-increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere do not produce a uniform year-on-year increase in global temperature. On time-scales of 5-10 years, however, there is a broad scientific consensus that the Earth will continue to warm, with attendant changes in the climate, for the foreseeable future. It is important, for all countries, that this warming is slowed down, through substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions to reduce the most dangerous impacts of climate change. Respected international research groups, using other data sets, have come to the same conclusion.

The University of East Anglia and CRU are committed to scientific integrity, open debate and enhancing understanding. ...The publication of a selection of stolen data is the latest example of a sustained and, in some instances, a vexatious campaign which may have been designed to distract from reasoned debate...

If you want to get the younger brainwashed folks to turn a more critical eye towards “solutions” to solve “GW” all you need to do is put out a rumor that Dems are planning to drastically restrict cell phone usage to minimalist levels in the name of saving the planet. Even when they find out it is a hoax trust me many will see how their new found glory in environmental legislation could just as easily limit usage of what they deem necessities.

“There was an interesting exchange between Ed Begley Jr. and Stuart Varney earlier”

- Wow..I had missed that. I always loved Ed’s acting but never knew he was an eco-nut. Interesting video..Stuart keeps his cool and Ed is popping veins and shouting. It really is no longer a science but a religion to poor Ed.

And, most of the religious scholars who handed Jesus over to be crucified all had their own “Ph.Ds” as well!

What I'd really like to see is some enterprising legal types file lawsuits in the individual states calling for the laws based on AGW to be repealed. There have been dozens of laws passed, or regulations foisted upon us by some "panel" (especially here in Crapifornia) that were done to appease the GW crowd, and they need to be stricken from the books.

And while I'm dreaming, I'd like a motorcycle.....

The best defense is a good offense, and a sharply-tuned display of faux outrage?

*cite here the old adage about how to get out of deep holes*

Daughter and I watched Stuart Varney v. Useful Idiot Begley.

No contest. Think Begley actually might have had spittle dribbling from his mouth.

Daughter says Begley has some sort of climate-related tv program? Explains all. He’s a WarmerWhore.

Yes I noticed that. It's quite interesting that an organisation quote committed to scientific integrity, open debate and enhancing understanding unquote, characterises questioning of its conclusions as quote the latest example of a sustained and, in some instances, a vexatious campaign which may have been designed to distract from reasoned debate unquote. Presumably the only "reasoned debate" is of the nature where everyone agrees and the only object of controversy is how wild you make the doomsday predictions.

I think the professor needs to write a one-thousand word essay on the definition of integrity.

i bet they get away with it.

There are thousands of dedicated, honest scientists who have been inartfully labeled as "deniers" and have had years of their work dismissed or supressed by the CRU gang. I bet they'll make damn sure these hippie clowns go down.

We’ve learned that they left is ruling the roost now. They have control of most institutions and even corporations to a large extent. Therefore, we have to look to what oppressed people in the past have done, although we have it better than many such groups of the past. We have to never shut up, we have to keep hounding them and shouting the truth from the rooftops and interjecting and interrupting whenever and wherever we can If that doesn’t work, we may have to go to the next step. These leftists scams, corruption and hoaxes have to be exposed. That’s the only way to beat them back. We have to stop being so damn polite and “fair.”

Mildly defensive and misleading. A lawyer’s work. A liar, pure and simple.

Somebody needs to point out to Mr. Ed that James Hansen, the jackoff at NASA who is *the* major global warming alarmist in the US, has his PhD in physics.

I’m pleased that Ed junior has now given us all permission to ignore Mr. Hansen, since he is not, by the Begley standard, a certified climatologist.
