    want to compare the funding from oil companies to the BILLIONS in tax dollars provided by government beaureacrats to the green energy gurus

    but then when the government climate gurus are busy fattening their wallets from the green energy companies that is not surprising is it?

    The so called "Copenhagen consensus centre" is nothing more than a $2 especially since it lost it's funding from the Danish government - probably for being one of the most inept QANGO's seen since the Australian government bought "Blue Poles" for the Opera house

    ahhhhh back to attacking the source Bower , how predictable. I bet you have the Alinsky book memorized rofl

    you guys are up that famous creek now weather is not co operating and now even the green thinktanks are turning on the political gravy train

    I guess skeptical science has any cut and paste cherry picks to "debunk" this yet so you had to go to wikipedia LOL

    Weather is not the same as climate and the USA seems one of the only places on Earth which is not feeling some of the worst of the climate change

    funny when there is a heatwave weather is climate but when there is a blizzard weather is not climate. Is that how it goes ?

    climate is just a collection of weather last I looked just as N America is part of the global community. So now you are saying it is regional climate change?

    wheels are off the wagon

    Typical Liberal response. Ignore facts because someone did not spoon feed you. What is the matter, not smart enough to use Google search to find out if what I posted was true? Well here you go:

    CRU erased datasets when they were forced to divulge the data through a FOI request:

    http://www.examiner.com/article/cru-raw-data-loss-not-an-accident

    A few months later, the CRU was hacked. The Hacker then released a series of emails and documents from the CRU. They clearly showed that the CRU was manipulating data, and that they were frustrated that even with the fact that even with their manipulating the temps kept going down instead of up.

    (since you love Wiki so much)

    After that Phil Jones quit his job. On his way out, he did an interview with the BBC.

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/8511670.stm

    I direct you to question "G" of that interview:
    Further, when Phil Jones was asked if debate over climate change is over he said:
    There you go. One of the chief proponents of the Global Warming hoax has said that it is not been proven.

    I normally charge to do research of others. My rate is $75 per hour with a four hour guarantee. If you are interested in having me do more research for you just let me know. I will send you my PayPal account number. Payment must be received before any research begins.

    Your source is "The Examiner" and the article is speculation

    So that was at the beginning of the controversy - what happened later?

    the secret funding is just a distraction, got to have he mysterious evil organization plotting to distract from the fact that the past climate control efforts have done noting more than make the common man suffer while not doing a damn thing to lower CO2. In the meantime th e fat cat politicians pushing this nonsense are fattening their wallets and greedy green organizations are making billions selling unworkable cures for a non existent disease

    whole thing is just political snake oil
