The following represents the heart of the United Nations sponsored scandal known as "Climategate". Much thanks to our anonymous Internet troll for the link. Of course all the data and conclusions have been soundly, thoroughly and completely discredited. Billions of dollars of taxpayer's money has been wasted. Pay close attention to the long list of co-conspirators at the end of this document.
I've added a few links to provide a bit of background about climategate. All climate scientists should be embarrassed and ashamed over climategate, and distance themselves as far from the United Nations and its IPCC as possible. There can be no honest debate over the science when all of the data is corrupt. If this were an issue in a courtroom the case for man-caused global warming would be thrown out in an instant and all the United Nations contributing so-called scientists would be in prison for committing perjury and criminal fraud, if not crimes against humanity.

About climategate.com
Note: On March 9, 2010, the Climategate.com stopped operations as a daily blog. On July17, 2010, we returned as a simple news aggregator. The main reason for this was to make available again all of our previous articles. You can find them through this index of climategate articles.
The goal of Climategate.com is to provide a daily dose of information regarding the world’s greatest scam, climategate, and other information and news to help you in your battle against the Religion of Settled Science to dispute their views on Anthropogenic Global Warming, and in addition, to battle the one-world socialist agenda, which is the movement’s leaders’ real goal.
If you would like a good primer on climategate Lord Christopher Monckton has created a 43 page report you can download free, in PDF form, called Climategate: Caught Green-Handed — Cold Facts about the Hot Topic of Global Warming Temperature Change after the Climategate Scandal.
And now, an outline of what is rightly considered "history's biggest scam."

The Cold Hard Truth About Solar Energy
The cold hard truth about solar energy is that it is not economically viable, except in specialized, limited and usually subsidized applications. This is despite having Billions of tax-payer dollars fed into the bottomless pit of corrupt science (man-caused global warming) incompetent governments and crony capitalism (Solyndra). So now British Petroleum (BP) has seen the light, figuratively speaking and they're pulling the plug on their solar energy efforts. I could say I told you so.

BP shutting solar unit as industry struggles
3:13 pm ET 12/21/2011 - MarketWatch Databased News
NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- After prominently featuring solar panels in its brand advertisements and at some of its gas stations, BP PLC is planning to shutter its BP Solar operation, according to reports on Wednesday.
BP PLC said global economic challenges have impacted the solar industry, making it difficult to sustain long term returns, according to an internal BP email cited by press reports. The move will affect 100 jobs.
BP, which has been in the solar business for decades, had featured solar panels prominently in its Beyond Petroleum advertising campaign.
BP said the solar business, which has been flooded by excess supply from China, has become commoditized.
A phone call and email to BP by MarketWatch was not immediately returned. BP will hold on to other alternative energy businesses, including wind.
BP inked a supply contract with JA Solar in 2010 as it started scaling back its own solar panel factories and trimming jobs.
Sam Wilkinson, senior market analyst of IMS Research said BP's decision comes as global photovoltaic module manufacturing capacity reaches 50 gigawatts, while demand is expected to total only 24 gigawatts this year. Average prices are now 44% lower than they were one year ago.
"Rapid manufacturing expansions have coincided with a slowdown in the growth of global demand," Wilkinson said in a statement emailed to MarketWatch. "The result has been intense competition and a fierce price war, and not enough demand to support all of the industry's hundreds of suppliers."
The move comes just days after First Solar, the only pure-play solar panel maker in the S&P 500 , issued a profit warning for 2012 and said it'll refocus its business toward large-scale utility projects, rather than residential solar panels. See: First Solar falls to lowest level since 2007.

Climate Scientist Trenberth Says Everyone (Except Him) Is "Poorly Informed"
This Prof. Trenberth has sure shown himself to be a fool. Read his comments, then consider the caliber and qualifications of people he calls "poorly informed". (I've listed hundreds of them on this blog.) Either he (Trenberth) is a fool or incredibly ignorant and arrogant.
The author of the following aritcle, Marc Morano is correct. There is a growing swell of prominent scientists coming out of the closet, so-to-speak, and denouncing what I call the myth of man-caused global warming. The mainstream media is even beginning to catch on. It could be the bad economy is making people take a closer look at the rationale behind the myth. The science behind the myth is incredibly weak. The sensationalism used by people like Al Gore to promote the myth is preposterous and downright fraudulent. Al Gore is a liar, but unfortunately, as a former politician I suppose people just pass that off as normal behavior. Here's a new truism: "boys will be boys and politicians will be liars".
Maybe things like the pending "cap and trade" legislation will finally make people take a serious look at this thing called man-caused global warming and realize what a baseless a concept it really is.

| Ignorant Skeptics?: UN Scientist Prof. Trenberth says only 'poorly informed' scientists disagree with UN - Appeals to Authority: 'The IPCC has spoken' |
| Written by Marc Morano, Climate Depot |
| Tuesday, October 13 2009 12:09 |
 Dr. Kevin Trenberth Dr. Kevin Trenberth — head of the Climate Analysis Section at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, in Boulder CO and a UN IPCC lead author, claimed dissenting scientists were ignorant of the science behind man-made global warming. Trenberth also declared the debate over and wrote 'the IPCC has spoken." "I have found that the only scientists who disagree with the IPCC report are those who have not read it and are poorly informed," Trenberth, declared in an October 10, 2009 written debate with Hurricane guru Dr. Bill Gray, Professor Emeritus of Atmospheric Science at The 'IPCC HAS SPOKEN" Trenberth appealed to authority in order to convince readers that man-made climate change was a threat to mankind. "The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has spoken: 'Warming of the climate system is unequivocal' and it is 'very likely' due to human activities," Trenberth asserted. Trenberth also claimed that the "IPCC process is very open." Trenberth also added his own policy prescriptions to address global warming. "There is much that can be done, and America should lead. If done in the right way, benefits to the climate through reduced emissions save energy and promote the economy, while increasing sustainability," he expalained. Back in 2007, Trenberth surprised many with his candid comments about climate models. He admitted that the climate models touted by former Vice President Al Gore, the UN, the media and scientists are not predictions, but merely “story lines.”Climate Depot Response to Trenberth's claim that only 'poorly informed' scientists disagree with UN IPCC's spoken word. “In fact there are no predictions by IPCC at all. And there never have been. The IPCC instead proffers 'what if' projections of future climate that correspond to certain emissions scenarios,” Trenberth wrote in journal Nature's blog on June 4, 2007. Trenberth also admitted that the climate models have major shortcomings because “they do not consider many things like the recovery of the ozone layer, for instance, or observed trends in forcing agents. There is no estimate, even probabilistically, as to the likelihood of any emissions scenario and no best guess." (LINK) The simplest way to respond to Trenberth's assertion is to let the latest scientific data, peer-reviewed studies and UN IPCC scientists speak for themselves. In 2009, the climate has changed dramatically -- the scientific observational data and most surprisingly -- the media climate. Even the BBC, the Houston Chronicle, the UK Times, the Washington Post, Christian Science Monitor and New York Times are no longer buying the insulting notion that when the UN IPCC "has spoken" the debate is over. Trenberth's Retro Climate Claims Trenberth is living in 2006 or 2007 America when the media used to believe uncritically the UN claims and never questioned the "man behind the curtain." The science is disintegrating so fast that even climate activists are now openly lamenting the entire man-made climate fear movement. See: Climate Activists Shock Admission: 'Climate change campaigners should not have fixated on carbon dioxide' -- 'only responsible for about half of the problem' - Sept. 18, 2009 In addition, public opinion continues to turn against climate fear promotion and even activists at green festivals are now expressing doubts over man-made climate fears and a Nobel Prize-winning economist is wishing for 'tornadoes' and 'a lot of horrid things' to convince Americans of a climate threat. It's time Trenberth got a badly needed reality check, which of course Climate Depot is only too happy to provide. A small sampling of recent developments include: new peer-reviewed studies, real world data, a growing chorus of scientists dissenting (including more UN IPCC scientists), open revolts in scientific societies, more evidence that rising CO2 is a boon for the atmosphere, and the Earth's failure to warm. The year 2009 saw a report from 35 international scientists directly countering the UN IPCC's scientific claims. See: “Climate Change Reconsidered: The 2009 Report of the Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change” This year also saw the flow of peer-reviewed scientific papers continue to be published challenging the UN IPCC climate views. as well. See: Peer-Reviewed Study Rocks Climate Debate! 'Nature not man responsible for recent global warming...little or none of late 20th century warming and cooling can be attributed to humans' – July 23, 2009 A Japan Geoscience Union symposium survey in 2008 reportedly “showed 90 per cent of the participants do not believe the IPCC report.” Scientific meetings are now being dominated by a growing number of skeptical scientists. The prestigious International Geological Congress, dubbed the geologists' equivalent of the Olympic Games, was held in Norway in August 2008 and prominently featured the voices of scientists skeptical of man-made global warming fears.
