Lawrence Solomon: New Zealand's Climategate - FP Comment

An agency of the New Zealand government has been cooking the books to create a warming trend where none exists, according to a joint research project by global warming skeptics at the Climate Conversation Group and the New Zealand Climate Science Coalition. The chief cook? Dr. Jim Salinger, considered one of the country's top scientists, who began the graph in the 1980s when he was at the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia in the UK. CRU, of course, has become ground zero of Climategate at Dr. Salinger has maintained close relations with CRU since, as seen in the Climategate emails.

What do the uncooked books show? Rather than warming over the last hundred years, New Zealand's temperature has been steady.

I am not an expert on climate change. I am a victim of climate change. I live on a small island in the Southern part of the Pacific Ocean called the Cook Islands. It is a country merely 3 metres above sea level and experiencing the impact of climate change every second of the day through the drastic changing climate patterns that have brought the havoc of tsunamis, cyclones and rising sea levels.
