Scientists Who Had Emails Stolen Ask Heartland Institute to End Attack on Climate [Junk] Science | Union of Concerned [Junk] Scientists

Kevin Knobloch, president of the Union of Concerned Scientists, noted in a blog post today that while Heartland is demanding integrity and fairness in the treatment of this theft, the group was silent and in fact actively exploited the theft of these scientists’ emails in an effort to discredit their climate change research.

He went on to note that the “far more disturbing story here” was Heartland’s efforts to corrupt the teaching of science at its earliest levels by targeting public schools with materials designed to marginalize or dismiss climate science.

“The deep anger that pervades Heartland’s public statement yesterday seems to indicate embarrassment at being caught doing something that isn’t honorable, of which they are not proud,” Knobloch wrote.
