global warming scam

Neutered Sovereignty?

Obama gave a lackluster speech to the climate change crowd at Copenhagen. The BS may be catching up with him and his intensity may be fading.

“I have to be honest, as the world watches us today, I think our ability to take collective action is in doubt right now, and it hangs in the balance.

America will be a part of fast-start funding that will ramp up to $10 billion by 2012. And yesterday, Secretary Hillary Clinton, my Secretary of State, made it clear that we will engage in a global effort to mobilize $100 billion in financing by 2020, if — and only if — it is part of a broader accord.

Mitigation. Transparency. Financing. It’s a clear formula.”

In Obamawellian speak mitigation is big government control of all the aspects of ‘pollution,’ transparency is opaque and financing is theft.

Sovereignty is not yet dead. The fat lady is warming up her pipes but hasn’t sung.

The ever present Lord Christopher Monckton has stated that the only goal of the conference was to implement the framework and the funding for a world government – which he asserts has been achieved but there is ‘hope’ that the scam can be overcome.

If reports are correct, a climate draft accord has been reached and taxpayer costs for the extortion racket in the US will be …

$US10 billion a year from 2010 to 2012, climbing to $US50 billion annually by 2015 and $US100 billion by 2020.

Since the American public hasn’t gone down kicking and screaming over the billions/trillions in banker giveaways, endless wars and political corruptions, I’m not so sure that that this scheme won’t succeed. It’s what the globalists are betting on … that we actually are sheep and the slaughter is not far away.

But perhaps they have underestimated us and overestimated how much they can suck from the host … “it’s hard to run when your belly is full of blood.”

Meanwhile, Hugo Chavez spoke right after Obama at the conference and what did he say?

“By the way, it smells of sulfur in here.”

Climate Reparations

Posted on

Coming historically close on the heels of the successful reparation program for the ‘Holocaust’ comes the UN program to force us to pay for our ‘environmental sins.’

Everything from 1800 AD is fair game. The ‘sins’ of our fathers are also ours.

NGOs Propose Measures for Justice

A Platform for Climate Justice, a consortium of people’s movements in Asia, has highlighted solving climate change and injustice through the transformation of global economic, political and socio-cultural systems. It urges the broad recognition of climate debt, along with reparations to redress it, estimating a figure of US $24 trillion from the climate debt incurred between 1800 and 2008.
{UN}

One of the controlled opposition’s leading spokespersons, Naomi Klein, is cheerleading the reparation angle.

On Monday [in Copenhagen}, environmental activists opened a parallel summit billed as the global civil society counterpart to the climate talks. Addressing the Klimaforum’s opening session, the Canadian author and activist Naomi Klein called for climate reparations to developing nations and stressed the urgency of a grassroots environmental movement.

Naomi Klein: “We have to somehow offset the carbon we emitted coming here. How do we do it? We do it, or we try to do it, by using this incredible space, this historic convergence, to build the kind of global mass movement that will never ever let our leaders get away with this kind of criminal negligence again. That is our task, my friends. It is awesome and fearsome. Think of it as the mother of all carbon offsets.” {more – Democracy Now}

 Cliff Kincaid {caveat emptor} at Accuracy in Media reports on the reparations.

Socialists Demand Trillions in “Climate Debt”

The U.S. failure to pay, argues leftist Canadian writer Naomi Klein, has already produced “climate rage” and a “global movement for climate justice” led by Bolivia’s socialist President Evo Morales. The implication is that if the U.S. doesn’t pay up, protests and even violence could break out. {more}

The UN agenda … Climate Justice for a Changing Planet

Copenhagen climate change summit – opening day liveblog

We have a multitude of environmental problems. Most of us can just look around during our daily travels and see some while many remain hidden without personal research.

But instead of focusing on the most obvious problems we could solve, we are being led astray. An agenda of reparations, which will of course be handled by the bankers, is another variable in the psyops/social engineering so called ‘environmentalism’ plan of stealing everything we have.

Those at the top of the criminal food chain don’t come up with anything new, just ‘innovative offshoots’ of the same scams that have worked before.

Holocaust reparations … worked …

Climate reparations … to be determined …

Proof the Copenhagen Climate Conference is a Fraud … Hemp is ‘off the table’

Posted on

No matter where you stand on the issue of ‘climate change,’ a sure sign that the Copenhagen conference is not really interested in solutions but only in the extortion of money and global control is that hemp is not ‘on the table.’

Ever hear Al Gore say a word on the benefit of planting massive amounts of hemp as a carbon capture plant and its many uses that could replace thousands of polluting products and create hundreds of thousands of ‘green’ jobs.

Nope, you haven’t and you never will. It would make too much sense. The frauds want a centralized mechanism where only a few benefit and the rest of the world would be under their thumb.

We should say no to false science, CO2 demonetization, cap and trade, carbon credits, the UN, bankers, big oil and corporate thieves and yes to hemp, small farmers and the new entrepreneurs who actually have some answers for a better world. Easier said than done but we can get there.

Silence at Copenhagen …

Hemp Global Solutions

Our basic premise is that hemp is far more productive than typical agro-forestry projects, producing annual, versatile biomass alongside more rapid CO2 uptake. It can produce a vast range of sustainable raw materials with an overall low environmental impact, as well as improving soil structure, using low fertiliser and no other chemical inputs (i.e. reduced agrochemical residues).

Hemp can be grown on existing agricultural land (unlike most forestry projects), and can be included as part of a farm’s crop rotation with positive effects on overall yields of follow on crops. This, along with super versatility in diverse soil conditions and climates, makes hemp cultivation a viable and genuine potential.

The vast quantities of hemp derived products and raw materials created by large scale cultivation could replace many oil-based unsustainable products and materials, particularly in construction, locking in captured CO2 and creating secondary benefits to the global environment. In particular, hemp could be used to replace significant quantities of tree-derived products, allowing reduced use of existing tree populations, thus maintaining their CO2 uptake.

Hemp also produces much higher quantities of stronger and more versatile fibre than cotton, and many other fibre crops, which often have very high chemical residue and water footprints. Extra processing required by hemp is also at least partially offset by its recycling potential. {more}

Jack Herer has a $100,000 Challenge to Prove Us Wrong!

If all fossil fuels and their derivatives, as well as trees for paper and construction, were banned in order to save the planet, reverse the Greenhouse Effect and stop deforestation;

then there is only one known annually renewable natural resource that is capable of providing the overall majority of the world’s paper and textiles; meet all of the world’s transportation, industrial and home energy needs, while simultaneously reducing pollution, rebuilding the soil and cleaning the atmosphere all at the same time…

and that substance is the same one that has done it before . . .

Climate Refugees – coming to a town near you?

Posted on

Leading up to the Copenhagen scam …

Western nations should open up borders to millions of ‘climate refugees’ says Bangladeshi minister

Migration is the only escape from rising tides of climate change in Bangladesh

The new migrants

Climaterefugees.com says …

There is a new phenomenon in the global arena called “Climate Refugees”. A climate refugee is a person displaced by climatically induced environmental disasters. Such disasters result from incremental and rapid ecological change, resulting in increased droughts, desertification, sea level rise, and the more frequent occurrence of extreme weather events such as hurricanes, cyclones, fires, mass flooding and tornadoes. All this is causing mass global migration and border conflicts. For the first time, the Pentagon now considers climate change a national security risk and the term climate wars is being talked about in war-room like environments in Washington D.C. {more}

If you look at the ‘friends’ of climatrefugees, you find many of the same groups funded by the Rothschild/Rockefeller/oligarch overseers that have been getting some media play lately and sucking in converts.

People have become displaced because of weather events throughout history. Katrina was our last major example. It happens. Most of us want to help.

But if the globalist agenda of the bankers and UN control and loss of US sovereignty through forced environmental ‘agreements’ actually gets pulled off, we are set up to being forced to take on millions of the ‘climate migrants.’

Another part of the plan is amnesty for illegal immigrants and an invitation for all of their family and friends to join them. Combine this with the ‘climate refugees’ and and we get to diversify our country more than ever.

Who’s going to benefit?

excerpt from Climategate: A Crime Against Humanity

by Mike Rivero

It is clear that government, the media, corporatized science, have quite literally bet the farm on selling the illusion of human cause global warming as justification for global taxes and global government. In order to bring about global government simultaneous with creating the illusion of a need they have to destroy the credibility of the regional governments and we have seen a great deal of this lately. Now the oligarchs face an awkward choice. They have set the stage for a collapse of the national governments and the global government they wish to install in its place may be collapsing right along with the myth of global government.

Various governments and the media are so heavily invested in selling the illusion of human cause global warming, that if that hoax is exposed, if the public becomes aware of the monstrous fraud involved, those institutions of government and media could very well be destroyed and by their own hands.

Already we are seeing the organizers and perpetrators of this fraud trying to limit the damage from this exposure in several ways. The media is already hard at work attempting to dump the blame and scandal solely on the climate scientists, who after all were only doing what they were paid to do. This is not to say the scientists are not guilty. Quite the contrary, they deserve to be pilloried publicly and humiliated for their betrayal of the public trust. To say that their careers should be ended is an understatement. But in our haste to punish the scientists who assisted in the lies to the world, we must not forget that the scientists were working for somebody; for politicians such as Al Gore, for an agenda called global government, and for those who wanted to get rich by selling is a fictitious product called carbon credit.

Yet another tactic being employed to limit the damage from climate gate, is to insist that even though the scientist responsible for the climate warming data have been exposed as holsters that the validity of the data itself must remain above question above reproach. This of course is nonsense. If you hire a contractor to build a home, and discover afterwards that the contractor has a history of using substandard materials and sloppy workmanship, do you continue to believe the home he has billed shoe is solid and durable and safe? Of course not. And yet the global warming cultists, are demanding exactly this kind of naïveté from the public at large.

So is climate gate a fraud? Is climate gate a scientific scandal? No. Climate gate is first and foremost a political scandal. More than that it is a global political scandal, that involves governments, media, institutionalize science, the banks, universities, indeed a vast cross-section of our ruling classes. It is more than a scandal; climate gate is a crime against humanity. And this is not an exaggeration. The goal of climategate was to extract money from every human being on planet Earth in exchange for a nonexistent salvation from a nonexistent threat. The goal of climate gate was to trick every human being on planet Earth into accepting the yoke of a global oligarchy with no more legitimate claim to power than those who ruled by divine right.

We are at a watershed moment. We may well see a transition to a new and better political structure for the entire world. But it will not be the one that has been designed for us. If nothing else the ability for government and media to lie to the population of the world on such a vast scale is forever destroyed. Climate gate will relegate all of the official stories of the governments of the United States and Great Britain and indeed every government that took part in the human cause global warming hoax to the same level of credibility as Ramses carvings showing his victory over the Hittites. It will be seen as an historic joke by future generations.

But we are not there yet. The forces that have enslaved us with deception and fraud and hoax are desperate to hang onto their power and authority. They are busy coming up with new hoaxes and frauds to scare us back into obedience. And the media well aware that they cannot report on the lies of climate gate without reporting their own complicity are working hand in glove with government to reassert their ability to control what you think and when you think it.

So, what we the free people of planet Earth need to do in the coming weeks is become the new mainstream media. The TV networks and other corporate media have been handed their marching orders to resell the illusion of human cause climate change in any way shape or form that will convince you to accept new taxes and the loss of your freedoms. The only way the rest of the world is going to find out about climate gate is if you tell them. Because the TV and news magazines won’t. If it’s mentioned at all, it will be to trivialize and dismiss it and assure the world it really doesn’t matter. BBC is still reporting climate gate as just another computer crime. This is like reporting Watergate as just another burglary!

We have collected together a vast body of evidence calling into question the legitimacy of the claims of human cause global warming. We have collected together a vast body of evidence proving fraud and deception on the part of the global warming cult. Please for this information to everybody you know in times of the essence. Barack Obama as already indicated that he will not be swayed by the exposure of the fraud in the CRU/NWIA data, and fully intends to go to Copenhagen to sign away our national sovereignty as “penance” for our contribution to global warming.

Other observers have commented that the moment president Obama signs that Copenhagen Treaty his credibility as president of the United States will be destroyed. For him to sign away sovereignty of our nation on the basis of a known lie should enrage all Americans and make it clear that the federal government is not working in the interests of the American people any more, but in service to this emerging globalist socialistic empire. Remember; global government is what Hitler wanted. Global Government is what Napoleon wanted. Global Government is what Alexander the Great wanted. Global Government is what the Roman Caesars wanted.

Climategate may well prove to be the final fight in the war between those who would rule us with lies and those who wish to live with truth. Climategate makes it clear that yes, there really are massive conspiracies between government and the media to mislead the general public. You cannot pretend they don’t exist; one is right there before you staked out naked on the ground, exposed for all to marvel at! I leave it as an exercise for the reader to decide how many other such deceptions form what we think we know of the world and of history.

There are two paths into the future. Along one lies freedom and truth and prosperity for the people. Along the other lies a socialist dictatorship, born in deception, unable and unwilling to tolerate dissent, and dedicated to robbing the poor to give to the rich.

You need to decide which future you wish to live in.

And you need to decide what you will do about it.

Once again we have a globalist backed front group that is leading the flock. This time towards Copenhagen.

TckTckTck is a slick organization. They get a lot of young folks to think they are doing something important and ‘dance for the climate‘ and encourage their ‘leaders’ to tax the very air we breathe if that’s what is necessary to save us from ourselves. Turning a midnight oil song into a contrived anthem for all of the useful idiots is one of their ‘accomplishments.’ “Pay the rent, pay our share”

Tck seems to want to be a centralized umbrella group, unifying the message…

Our partners range from some of the largest civil society organizations in the world, including the World Wildlife Fund, Oxfam, and Amnesty International, to our equally important individual, local, and national partners, like Presencia Ciudadana Mexicana. We are unified globally, bringing together faith groups, like the World Council of Churches, anti-poverty groups, like the Global Campaign Against Poverty, and science organizations, like the Union of Concerned Scientists.

TckTckTck is a project of the Global Campaign for Climate Action (GCCA), a bold, new initiative involving a growing number of national and global organizations in support of a single goal: to mobilize civil society and to galvanize public opinion in support of transformational change and rapid action to save the planet from dangerous levels of climate change. {more] {List of Tck partners}

Now before I join up with the Tck gang, I’d like to know where their funding comes from.
From their website

The campaign is funded by a number of private foundations directly engaged on the issue of climate change.

You might think Tck would be proud of these private foundations that give them a ton of money and shout out some kudos but I guess those foundations are just shy and don’t want the publicity. A google search doesn’t turn up much info on who funds Tck.

But we do know that one of the partners of Tck is ‘350,’ a subsidiary of the Sustainable Markets Foundation, an offshoot of The Rockefeller Brothers Fund. {more}

So, we may infer that the Tck funding is similar and that the money trail goes back to the central banks and their allies who will benefit the most from the carbon scam.

Tck will have a presence at the Copenhagen Climate Conference and will get some tv time and a pass. From reports, other groups that may not be as friendly to the agenda may get to be an experiment in ‘thought crimes.’

The Danish parliament today passed legislation which will give police sweeping powers of “pre-emptive” arrest and extend custodial sentences for acts of civil disobedience. The “deeply worrying” law comes ahead of the UN climate talks which start on 7 December and are expected to attract thousands of activists from next week.

Under the new powers, Danish police will be able to detain people for up to 12 hours whom they suspect might break the law in the near future. {more}

If you’re not with Tic and the gang, then you had better watch your thoughts…the Danish think they can read them.

Pre-emptive, now where have we heard that before? That used to be only for wars of aggression and theft but it may be coming down to those who only speak against the religion of ‘climate change’ and eventually anything else deemed heretical.

What a wonderful world…..

The Media and Al Gore

Posted on

Right after the release of the hacked CRU files, Al Gore traveled to SNL for some not so funny attempts at comedy. We’re not very amused at his lies either.

The media still gives Al a pass….

It is a characteristic of all movements and crusades that the psychopathic element rises to the top.” Robert Lindner

How much longer will Al Gore get a pass from the mainstream media? A little bit longer if their failure to react to the devastating revelations of files hacked from the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) at the University of East Anglia is a measure. Their behavior reflects how most, especially from the left, have abetted the scientists who deliberately perverted climate science.

The definition of delusional is, “An idiosyncratic belief or impression that is firmly maintained despite being contradicted by what is generally accepted as reality or rational argument.” You decide.

Instead of reporting on the CRU and having real debates, ABC today continues to spin the ‘scientists’ conspiracy. (thanks for the link to willyloman)

Global Warming Report Finds Time Running Out

26 Scientists Say Assessment Gives World Leaders Solid Data for Climate Summit

There’s even less time for humanity to try to curb global warming than recently thought, according to a new in-depth scientific assessment by 26 scientists from eight countries. {more}

While most of the media hides, there has been one report that if even close to being true should be a Gore talking point but he tends to stay away from real pollution.

How 16 ships create as much pollution as all the cars in the world

The press gives Al a forum in Alberta Canada.

Extracting oil from Alberta’s tar sands jeopardizes the survival of our species, says Al Gore.

He called such projects “crazy.”

“They have to tear up four tons of landscape, all for one barrel of oil. It is truly nuts. But, you know, junkies find veins in their toes.”{more}

If words don’t work, computer simulations may do the trick…all real of course.

Al Gore: Supercomputers can sway global warming ways

Supercomputers with visualization programs can also make the case for the increase in global warming and provide simulations as evidence to reverse that trend.

That’s where supercomputers come in — they can illicit that visceral response by showing what the future will be like if we don’t change our ways, according to Gore. {more}

Mike Rivero’s assessment…..

Folks, Climategate is not just about CRU. The damage-control limited-hangout strategy will be to confine the issue to CRU. The corporate media will whine and try to play victim and claim they were fooled along with the rest of us … except that the blogs and alternative media were not fooled at all.

In order to believe that ABCNNBBCBS are innocent victims in all this, then you have to believe that gigantic TV networks with millions of dollars in budgets and staffs in the thousands, all failed to find the obvious signs of deception spotted by bloggers operating on spare change found under seat cushions.

That is simply beyond belief.

Far from being innocent parties, the TV networks were co-conspirators in the campaign to truck you into accepting more taxes, more control over your lives, and of course, the global government.

There is no need to “reanalyze” anything. That is just a dodge to delay the consequences of the public finding out the first analysis was a bunch of rubbish. And how can they reanalyze anything since CRU admitted destroying the raw data last August!

There is nothing to reanalyze. CRU lied to us all. The corporate media lied to us all. The US government lied to us all. The United Nations lied to us all. The proper course of action is to brand all these liars in public, not out of revenge, but to severely limit their ability to lie successfully to the public again.

Is the Hadley Climate Research Unit hack the straw that breaks Al Gore’s back?

Posted on

“We’ll get these hackers and waterboard ’em.”

Maybe too late Al.



Megaupload has the ‘stolen’ files. I just downloaded them. Better get them before they disappear although it appears they are being mirrored widely across the net.

It will take an effort to go through them all to find all the ‘good stuff’ but I’d say there will be many who will in the coming days.

From the Examiner….

Hadley CRU hacked with release of hundreds of docs and emails

The University of East Anglia’s Hadley Climatic Research Centre appears to have suffered a security breach earlier today, when an unknown hacker apparently downloaded 1079 e-mails and 72 documents of various types and published them. These files appear to contain highly sensitive information that, if genuine, could prove extremely embarrassing to the authors of the e-mails involved. Those authors include some of the most celebrated names among proponents of the theory of anthropogenic global warming (AGW).

As embarrassing as the e-mails are, some of the documents are more embarrassing. They include a five-page PDF document titled The Rules of the Game, that appears to be a primer for propagating the AGW message to the average subject/resident of the United Kingdom. The document suggests that it is a precis of a longer document housed at the Web site of the UK Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs. {more}

From gather….

If these emails prove authentic (which it appears many do), this is a scandal on the scale of The Pentagon Papers.

Here are several of the published emails:

From Michael E. Mann (witholding of information / data):

Dear Phil and Gabi,

“I’ve attached a cleaned-up and commented version of the matlab code that I wrote for doing the Mann and Jones (2003) composites. I did this knowing that Phil and I are likely to have to respond to more crap criticisms from the idiots in the near future, so best to clean up the code and provide to some of my close colleagues in case they want to test it, etc. Please feel free to use this code for your own internal purposes, but don’t pass it along where it may get into the hands of the wrong people.”

From Nick McKay (modifying data):

“The Korttajarvi record was oriented in the reconstruction in the way that McIntyre said. I took a look at the original reference – the temperature proxy we looked at is x-ray density, which the author interprets to be inversely related to temperature. We had higher values as warmer in the reconstruction, so it looks to me like we got it wrong, unless we decided to reinterpret the record which I don’t remember. Darrell, does this sound right to you?”

From Dr. Phil Jones (modification of data to hide unwanted results):

“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.”

From Kevin Trenberth (failure of computer models):

“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. Our observing system is inadequate.”

From Phil Jones (destroying of emails / evidence):

Mike, Can you delete any emails you may have had with Keith re AR4? Keith will do likewise. He’s not in at the moment – minor family crisis. Can you also email Gene and get him to do the same? I don’t have his new email address. We will be getting Caspar to do likewise.

From Tom Wigley (data modification):

Phil, Here are some speculations on correcting SSTs to partly explain the 1940s warming blip. If you look at the attached plot you will see that the land also shows the 1940s blip (as I’m sure you know). So, if we could reduce the ocean blip by, say, 0.15 degC, hen this would be significant for the global mean — but we’d still have to explain the land blip. I’ve chosen 0.15 here deliberately. This still leaves an ocean blip, and i think one needs to have some form of ocean blip to explain the land blip (via either some common forcing, or ocean forcing land, or vice versa, or all of these). When you look at other blips, the land blips are 1.5 to 2 times (roughly) the ocean blips — higher sensitivity plus thermal inertia effects. My 0.15 adjustment leaves things consistent with this, so you can see where I am coming from. Removing ENSO does not affect this. It would be good to remove at least part of the 1940s blip, but we are still left with “why the blip”. Let me go further. If you look at NH vs SH and the aerosol effect (qualitatively or with MAGICC) then with a reduced ocean blip we get continuous warming in the SH, and a cooling in the NH — just as one would expect with mainly NH aerosols. The other interesting thing is (as Foukal et al. note — from MAGICC) that the 1910-40 warming cannot be solar. The Sun can get at most 10% of this with Wang et al solar, less with Foukal solar. So this may well be NADW, as Sarah and I noted in 1987 (and also Schlesinger later). A reduced SST blip in the 1940s makes the 1910-40 warming larger than the SH (which it currently is not) — but not really enough. So … why was the SH so cold around 1910? Another SST problem? (SH/NH data also attached.) This stuff is in a report I am writing for EPRI, so I’d appreciate any comments you (and Ben) might have. Tom.

From Thomas R Karl (witholding data) :

We should be able to conduct our scientific research without constant fear of an “audit” by Steven McIntyre; without having to weigh every word we write in every email we send to our scientific colleagues. In my opinion, Steven McIntyre is the self-appointed Joe McCarthy of climate science. I am unwilling to submit to this McCarthy-style investigation of my scientific research. As you know, I have refused to send McIntyre the “derived” model data he requests, since all of the primary model data necessary to replicate our results are freely available to him. I will continue to refuse such data requests in the future. Nor will I provide McIntyre with computer programs, email correspondence, etc. I feel very strongly about these issues. We should not be coerced by the scientific equivalent of a playground bully. I will be consulting LLNL’s Legal Affairs Office in order to determine how the DOE and LLNL should respond to any FOI requests that we receive from McIntyre.

From Tom Wigley (ousting of a skeptic from a professional organization):

Proving bad behavior here is very difficult. If you think that Saiers is in the greenhouse skeptics camp, then, if we can find documentary evidence of this, we could go through official AGU channels to get him ousted.

From Phil Jones (forging of dates):

Gene/Caspar, Good to see these two out. Wahl/Ammann doesn’t appear to be in CC’s online first, but comes up if you search. You likely know that McIntyre will check this one to make sure it hasn’t changed since the IPCC close-off date July 2006! Hard copies of the WG1 report from CUP have arrived here today. Ammann/Wahl – try and change the Received date! Don’t give those skeptics something to amuse themselves with.

From a document titled “jones-foiathoughts.doc” (witholding of data):

Options appear to be:

1. Send them the data

2. Send them a subset removing station data from some of the countries who made us pay in the normals papers of Hulme et al. (1990s) and also any number that David can remember. This should also omit some other countries like (Australia, NZ, Canada, Antarctica). Also could extract some of the sources that Anders added in (31-38 source codes in J&M 2003). Also should remove many of the early stations that we coded up in the 1980s.

3. Send them the raw data as is, by reconstructing it from GHCN. How could this be done? Replace all stations where the WMO ID agrees with what is in GHCN. This would be the raw data, but it would annoy them.

Where ever you stand on the climate debate, I hope we can agree that this is a wake-up call. The climate issue is too important to tolerate the lack of transparency that characterizes the current way of doing business. {more}
