Science losing to politics.

The black-listing has already begun. We are entering a dark period for the truth.

Warmists deny Copenhagen access to polar bear scientist

"But one of the world’s leading experts on polar bears has been told to stay away from this week’s meeting, specifically because his views on global warming do not accord with the views of the rest of the group."

"Dr Mitchell Taylor has been researching into the status and management of polar bears in Canada and around the Arctic Circle for 30 years, as both an academic and a government employee. More than once since 2006 he has made headlines by insisting that polar bear numbers, far from decreasing, are much higher than they were 30 years ago. Of the 19 different bear populations, almost all are increasing or at optimum levels, only two have for local reasons modestly declined."

EPA May Have Suppressed Report Skeptical Of Global Warming

Where is the outrage that was present when the mirror-opposite happened in the Bush administration?

"Less than two weeks before the agency formally submitted its pro-regulation recommendation to the White House, an EPA center director quashed a 98-page report that warned against making hasty "decisions based on a scientific hypothesis that does not appear to explain most of the available data."

"The EPA official, Al McGartland, said in an e-mail message to a staff researcher on March 17: "The administrator and the administration has decided to move forward... and your comments do not help the legal or policy case for this decision."

"Alan Carlin, the primary author of the 98-page EPA report, told CBSNews.com in a telephone interview on Friday that his boss, McGartland, was being pressured himself. "It was his view that he either lost his job or he got me working on something else," Carlin said. "That was obviously coming from higher levels." "


"Carlin's report listed a number of recent developments he said the EPA did not consider, including that global temperatures have declined for 11 years; that new research predicts Atlantic hurricanes will be unaffected; that there's "little evidence" that Greenland is shedding ice at expected levels; and that solar radiation has the largest single effect on the earth's temperature. "


"The revelations could prove embarrassing to Jackson, the EPA administrator, who said in January: "I will ensure EPA’s efforts to address the environmental crises of today are rooted in three fundamental values: science-based policies and programs, adherence to the rule of law, and overwhelming transparency." Similarly, Mr. Obama claimed that "the days of science taking a back seat to ideology are over... To undermine scientific integrity is to undermine our democracy. It is contrary to our way of life."

"All this talk from the president and (EPA administrator) Lisa Jackson about integrity, transparency, and increased EPA protection for whistleblowers -- you've got a bouquet of ironies here," said Kazman, the CEI attorney. "

Global Warming Update: Weather Forecasting

He is a guy who claims to make accurate forecast up to 12 months ahead of time.

He believes we are in a cooling session until 2013.

" If I'm to believe Corbyn, his scrawls represent something conventional science says cannot exist: a detailed weather forecast that reaches nearly a year into the future. "

"the 11 months' worth of scribbled forecasts he shows me were made using a proprietary method he says correlates solar activity with weather on Earth. But to forecast that far ahead would mean foretelling the movement of inherently chaotic weather systems, and that, contend his detractors, defies the laws of physics. "

"Corbyn bets on his forecasts. Unusual among bettors of any stripe, he wins regularly. The check on the wall is a payout from London bookmaker William Hill on one of their monthly bets. "

"Corbyn's conviction that the sun's behavior is the driving force behind earthly weather patterns is linked to another deeply held belief: The sun and radiation from outer space play a far more important role than the burning of fossil fuels in any global warming that might be taking place. The purveyors of the principal theory of global warming, he says, have sold the world a bill of goods. "If you piss in a lake, the level will go up," says Corbyn. "But it wouldn't be an important factor. [Human contribution to carbon dioxide levels] is not as minuscule as that, but it's not important."
