Comprehensive network analysis shows Climategate likely to be a leak « Watts Up With That?

The only reasonable explanation for the archive being in this state is that the FOI Officer at the University was practising due diligence. The UEA was collecting data that couldn’t be sheltered and they created FOIA2009.zip.
...
Occam’s razor concludes that “the simplest explanation or strategy tends to be the best one”. The simplest explanation in this case is that someone at UEA found it and released it to the wild and the release of FOIA2009.zip wasn’t because of some hacker, but because of a leak from UEA by a person with scruples.

Flashback to Bali: UN tactics to silence dissent « JoNova

From the outset the UNFCCC did everything it could to maintain the appearance that it is a fair, transparent, and scientific based organization. Yet on the ground, it did everything it could to make sure that there would be no dissent, no debate, and no free speech unless it was their official line.

Guest Blogger: Rep. Sensenbrenner (R-WI) on Climategate Should be in Copenhagen Agenda » The Foundry

Head U.S. climate negotiator Todd Stern has repeatedly said that the U.S. should be “guided by science” in our approach to these climate negotiations. But how can we follow the lead of scientists who use “tricks” to “hide the decline” in temperatures? Who scheme to get around Freedom of Information requirements? Who refuse to share the data that supports their work? Who tailor scientific results to hawk for research grants? And who consciously scheme to discredit and repress studies that don’t support their conclusions?

ClimateGate will not be a topic in the meeting rooms of Copenhagen. I plan to attend the Conference in Denmark, however, and it will be one of my top agenda items.

Richard Littlemore | Copenhagen: Is there dawn after this dark hour?

Pachauri deserves credit for maintaining any optimism whatever, given that he felt compelled to spend part of his opening statement defending the quality of science that has marked the IPCC process. It is as if the emails stolen from the University of East Anglia were actually lying around in the room, smoking. At least, they were invoked again and again, raised in press conferences and, as in Pachauri's statement, referred to directly or obliquely in virtually every session.

Hush Andy, There’s Nothing to See Here « the Air Vent

Without exaggeration, I’m again struck by the apparent lack of confidence in the science consensus. There is no argument on the merits of why a particular comment is wrong, just that it is wrong and you better shut up Andy.

Warning Signs: How to Destroy the U.S. Economy: Regulate Carbon Dioxide

The conference, however, must ignore revelations that one of its primary providers of climate data, the Climate Research Unit of the University of East Anglia, has been deliberately fudging the data, falsifying it to justify the treaty. Another major source of such data has been NASA’s climate program, both of which have fought efforts under the Freedom of Information Acts of both the UK and the USA, to require them to make their data available for scientific peer review.
