Phil Jones to Revkin, 2007: "The [climate hoax] message isn't going to change. It's about time they started doing something as opposed to talking about it."

Andy, You hit the nail on the head in your last few sentences. There will be less science done on climate change if govts of the world ask for another review. Hardly any of the scientists who did the last one will want to do it again. Also the conclusions aren't going to change. This talk just seems like a delaying tactic to put off decisions till a later date. The message isn't going to change. It's about time they started doing something as opposed to talking about it. The issue isn't like most normal things they deal with. Let's set up a committee and wait for it to report. The issue might then go away and our electorate think we're doing something. They have the report now - 2007 - they need to act. Cheers Phil

How in the world could you construe Phil Jones message from his email as anything but what it was? I.e. Climate Change is happening and there is no time to dilly dally.

Better listen to Drewski Tom. He's so smart he even has his own thread at The Air Vent.
