Obama administration climate czar Carol Browner on Wednesday rejected claims that e-mails stolen from a British university show climate scientists trumped up global warming numbers, saying she considers the science settled.
"I'm sticking with the 2,500 scientists. These people have been studying this issue for a very long time and agree this problem is real," said Ms. Browner, who President Obama has tapped as his chief of policy on global warming.
The e-mails were hacked from the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia and have come to light over the last week. They appear to show scientists saying they've smoothed over data that doesn't back up their claims of warming, and pondering how to freeze out scientists who disagree with them.
Release of the e-mails has fueled skeptics ahead of next month's major global warming meeting in Copenhagen, which is supposed to set the framework for a new global treaty to restrict greenhouse gas emissions.

Combing through over a decade of personal correspondence, which is then taken out of context can seem to prove just about anything.

It changes everything. It showed they were lying.

Hey, Browner, are you not listening or just this ignorant? The science is "FALSE, A TRUE DEMOCRATIC PONZI SCHEME LIE" and yet you seem to think you can prove the actual sciene wrong by stating that "email don't prove anything." Boy - the democrats have really screwed up all the way around - including their party. Browner - go drink the Kool-Aid some more and sit down and think on what you are saying. You are really showing your ignorance.

it seems the socialists are using the enviorment to get in the back door.

I will be glad when 2012 comes and we are done with these Morons !!!!
American_victors
In view of the admitted fraud by researchers studying global temperatures-- this moron is reprehensible.
The margin of temperature change gleaned from data that would indicate global warming is very small.
Thus even a slight nudge, makeover, or manipulation of data would sway the issue one way or the other.
The world needs to slow down, collect additional data, reevaluate its meaning and then proceed in the right direction. If we waste scarce resources to fix the wrong problem, we will be in deep sh-t.

BROWNER IS RIGHT. THE EMAILS DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING.
GLOBAL WARMING'/CLIMATE CHANGE, WHATEVER BOGUS CONVENIENT TITLE YOU WANT TO GIVE IT, HAS ALWAYS BEEN BULL S**T AND WILL REMAIN BULL S**T.
AN ACADEMY AWARD AND A NOBEL PEACE PRIZE FOR GORE. GAWD ALMIGHTY. IT'D BE FUNNY IF IT WEREN'T SO CONTEMPTABLE.
I DO FEEL SORRY FOR THE 'GREENIES' THOUGH. THESE EMAILS WON'T CHANGE WHAT THESE IDIOTS BELIEVE. IT'S GOT A HOLD ON THEM. THEY HAVE TOO MUCH INVESTED IN THE 'CAUSE'.
THE WHOLE THING IS A HOAX. BLOATED TO MAKE THE FAT CATS RICHER. AND THAT'S A FACT THAT DOESN'T CHANGE.

The human race unfortunately is very easy to control and mass hypnotism is a long established method for tyrants to take control. Hitler and Stalin did it and now our own little monkey in the Grey House is using the very same method.
CLIMATE CHANGE IS A SCAM that will destroy the power of the western empire. DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING AT COPENHAGEN. IT IS SOCIALIST LOVE FEST - FORGET IT.

Is she talking about the same 2500 “scientists” that proved the racial theories for the Third Reich?

Of course they don't matter. Reality means nothing to these people! That is why they keep trying to spend our way into prosperity. What a bunch of IDIOTS!!!!!!!

Classic Demalib... naive, selfish and clueless. Truley sad to imagine how one could develop such a limited and selfish state-of-mind at the tax payer's expense; sadly, she's one of many, that fail to understand or attempt to comprehend the reality, that the changes in climate are cyclic...

@ Carol Browner:
I think you are the one who instructed your "Climate Change" comittee to "never put anything in writing" Perhaps because you are trying to avoid something like this from happening to you.
As for the 2500 climate researchers you claim for support, there seems to be significantly more who don"t worship at the altar of anthropogenic global warming ---like over 30,000. Of course you have already made up your mind on the subject, and so will allow no heresy.
Quite frankly, Ms. Browner, the cat is out of the bag, and if you know anything about cats, you know you'll never get it back in. So go ahead and bury your head in the sand and ignore these e-mails and other indications of hanky-panky with the figures because we already know that it doesn't conform to your views on how to control the world through the UN climate counsel. As you worship your GOD of Climatology, please be aware that there are many of us that see through your lies and do not believe in "global warming, man caused or otherwise. The appearance of scandal will, I hope, sink your ship regardless of whether you acknowlege it or not.
The theory of global warming as being "man caused is just another theory similar to the other one many liberals love. Evolution. Another theory un-proven for over 150 years.

It will be so easy to get to the bottom of this mess: Follow the money. Who paid these hacks to gin the data? Find that out, and you have your culprit. Now, MSM, you all style yourselves as "reporters". GO! FETCH!

Well, I think I'll stick with the 31,000 scientists that don't believe in man-made global warming. I know, I know. You think they are a bunch of paid lackeys of the pollution lobby. But the dozen or so political hacks that have engineered this hoax are your boys. Can't expalin it away. MSM "opinion monitors" missed this one, also. Here comes the boulder, a rolling!

As the Earth continues to cool, the Climate-gate fraud being revealed, and with CO2 being neither a pollutant nor a climate driver. The Obama administration still continues to push the hoax of the century on an increasingly skeptical public.

Communists never let facts, evidence or truth get in the way.............
Did you see the chart comparing the administrations of the last several presidents on the percentage of people the presidents' hired with real private sector job experience? The overall average was around 50%.

Obama's administration is 10%. So we should believe in anything these shysters do or tell us?

Even Jimmy Carter had 3 times that amount and we all know what that was like!

of course NOT, is this why? BO orders 1 million US troops 2 prepare 4 civil war http://bit.ly/4TLjWu

Carol Browner is a socialist helping Obama to destroy our country. Everyone of these socialist are trying to CHANGE our American system into the International System of a ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT. The sooner the American people realize this, maybe we all can stop this COUNTERFEIT GOVERNMENT from taking over the world. They must destroy our GOD GIVEN beliefs before this government can take over. This is why Christianty is being attacked all the time. They are evil people!!!

Carol is affiliated with Socialist International, the umbrella group for 170 "social democratic, socialist and labor parties" in 55 countries. She worked on Socialist International's Commission for a Sustainable World Society, which argues that the global community must work collectively to address environmental policies.

Sorry folks but they do change things. Liars and con men who contrive to alter facts to reach a predestined opinion ( and call it fact ) are reason enough rto stop the whole charade. Temps are dropping and that doesn't fit the model. The 70's showed a new ice age coming ( remember that ) and a mere 20 years later A. Gore and his folks are 180 degrees different and it's going to melt the world. The only problem is the REAL facts don't seem to fit what we're being told. Maybe, just maybe, someone else should be looking at this other than the UN and some crooked scientists.

The thieves have become the "deniers". This scam is their last best hope to control every aspect of the individual. We did not need "clean water off-sets" to clean our rivers and lakes in the 70's. Nor did we need " smog off-sets" to clear our air. Why then, off sets for a gas that is produced during the life cycle, by every living organism on Earth? We know this only a money and power grab; YOUR money and the Power of the individual to succeed in the way he chooses. The Looters will do all the can to gain control. Any politician who supports this scam, should be kicked from office, if not placed behind bars. The people must wake up and SHOUT the Looters down, demand the press gives full attention to the issue of the hacked e-mails, the truth can not be buried forever.

A Socialist by all counts.

pseudoscience
Not surprising - Carol and the White House already pressured the career environmental scientists in EPA to declare CO2 a pollutant that is hazardous to health. An incredibly flagrant abuse of political power. EPA used to be a legitimate federal agency that based its actions on the most careful consideration of cause and effect, but now it is just a puppet of the politicians trying to advance their socialist agenda.
This is what is so unbelievable! CO2 is one of the four major constituents of the atmosphere (ie oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and water vapor) HEY BROWNER! Plants breath CO2! WTF??? There is no credible evidence for CO2 warming!!! Read my previous post. It's like I'm living in some type of dreamworld surrounded by fools! FACTS MEAN NOTHING TO THESE PEOPLE! IT"S AN F'IN RELIGION! Go to hell, Browner!
