Climate change data dumped
Jonathan Leake, Environment Editor
SCIENTISTS at the University of East Anglia (UEA) have admitted throwing away much of the raw temperature data on which their predictions of global warming are based.
It means that other academics are not able to check basic calculations said to show a long-term rise in temperature over the past 150 years.
The UEA’s Climatic Research Unit (CRU) was forced to reveal the loss following requests for the data under Freedom of Information legislation. (Otherwise we would never have know that.)
The data were gathered from weather stations around the world and then adjusted to take account of variables in the way they were collected. The revised figures were kept, but the originals — stored on paper and magnetic tape — were dumped to save space when the CRU moved to a new building. (hahaha)

_____________________________________________________
The admission that the original data has been discarded follows the leaking of a thousand private emails sent and received by Professor Phil Jones, the CRU’s director. In them he discusses thwarting climate sceptics seeking access to such data.
In a statement on its website, the CRU said: “We do not hold the original raw data but only the value-added (quality controlled and homogenized) data.” (That means his interpretation of what the ground stations recorded.)
The CRU is the world’s leading Centre for reconstructing past climate and temperatures. Climate change sceptics have long been keen to examine exactly how its data were compiled. That is now impossible
(This would be really funny if it weren’t so serious.)
Here’s some information they aren’t tell us:
PS The raw data they are talking about came from ground collection devices placed around the world. The problem was they had specific rules for upkeep and maintenance of the stations (small boxes) to preserve the quality of their readings. These mandatory maintenance regulations were totally ignored in 3/4 of the world’s countries for years. Any data they collected had to be all but WORTHLESS.
Here are just a few examples:
(1) the stations had louvers on two sides that had to be cleaned of debris every week. That was mandatory. Unfortunately that was not done. In fact, some were uncleaned for months and even years particularly in 3rd world countries and parts of the world where political unrest was present or where people had all the could do just to stay alive. .
(2) it was mandatory that the small ground station devices been repainted WHITE every few months so they would not absorb heat and skew the results. That wasn’t done at all. In some cases, it was never done.
(3) There were stringent rules about where the weather collection stations could be placed. They units couldn’t be under trees, near buildings, near parking garages or automobile parking lots or anywhere except in clean, open, unshaded areas away from any contaminating influences i.e. buildings, cars, shade trees, air conditioning units, lights etc.
Turns out they were placed around the world in places that compromised their readings to such a degree that the readings were actually worthless. (They used them anyway because they liked what they showed – warming. Sure they were warm but the reasons were mechanical not natural.)
Interestingly, they did have weather balloon readings but since they contradicted the global warming results from the contaminated ground stations, they weren’t used. They knew the results they wanted.
This is a deliberate scam and those who perpetrated it belong in jail starting with Al Gore. They have cost the world billions if not trillions of dollars. This European meeting on climate change should be canceled today but it won’t be because it’s really about billions of dollars of American money!!!
There’s a sucker born every minute.
