The global-warming scandal is bigger than one email leak.
This piece from the Wall Street Journal is a pretty good summary of what a lot of us are no doubt thinking about “global warming”. When scientific data is kept behind closed doors, unavailable, or classified, then why should we not be suspicious that there is really something else going on other than science. The fact that the masses in Copenhagen are apparently so slow or even so unwilling to respond to the points raised in an article such as this while singing to the same tune just fuels the fire. This seems to me to be NOT science, but ideology, running wild on tax-payers money.

You sound surprised? In Copenhagen, they are apparently discussing a global tax to curb carbon emissions. Of course a global tax requires a global tax authority and all the trappings that go with it. Without something “scientific” to lean on this wouldn’t be on the table.
What we are seeing is an excuse to do something bigger, which without a compelling event (e.g. climate change) simply isn’t possible.
I don’t think it is any coincidence that the link between the socialistic left and “green” have come together in this whole affair.
The next couple of years will be very interesting.
