Top U.N. official: Climategate 'exaggerated' - - POLITICO.com

“There would be one or two countries, maybe perhaps a few more, that would like to seize on this and — if I’m not to mince any words — would exaggerate the threat of this,” said Rajendra Pachauri, chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
...
Pachauri said that the senators had a right to request additional investigation but warned that it could cost them at the polls.

The IPCC is looking into the stolen emails. Additional investigation, said Pachauri, is unnecessary.

“Our credibility is not under question,” he said.

Global warming cooled by hackers | newsleader.com | The News Leader

Just in the nick of time, hackers have uncovered more than 3,000 e-mails of prominent climatologists involved in the CRU global warming studies, revealing major distortions of worldwide temperature data. The significant volume of e-mails and names of those involved has suddenly exposed global warming to be a huge scam. Data has been manipulated, and significant data from colder years destroyed. Most disturbing to men of science has been the close control of research publications and the suppression (blackballing) of any dissenting viewpoints. Several of the most prominent of the university climatologists have already stepped down in disgrace — others to follow. Science has taken a major hit.

Early yesterday morning, the stranding team was busy responded to a sick common dolphin at Rock Harbor, Harry said. Then they were headed to Campround Beach in Eastham for another dolphin stranded and struggling in ice-covered water, according to the Eastham police and Harry.

The high tides, strong winds and now bitter cold have combined to make it difficult for the marine mammals moving through the region, Harry said. It was 2-degrees with the wind chill at Rock Harbor Friday, Harry said.

Most of the stranded dolphins have died, although at least two were successfully released back into deeper water. Harry said.

A convenient lie - Washington Times

The myth of global warming along with the Environmental Protection Agency have become the hammer and sickle of eco-Marxism - the new green-red alliance that seeks to destroy capitalism and the sovereign nation-state. The United Nations climate-change summit in Copenhagen represents a major victory for international socialism. It also marks the triumph of ideological fanaticism over reality.

[Clyde Tippets] One article details the problems of the weather being too cold, the other article is concerned with the worldwide crisis, as some perceive, of the climate being too warm.
