NASA Defrauding Us - Also Lying About Global Warming

Sunday Paper - December 6th, 2009

We have our own data buriers at NASA.

Christopher C. Horner, global warming skeptic and author of The Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming (and Environmentalism) and Red Hot Lies: How Global Warming Alarmists Use Threats, Lies, and Fraud, and Deception to Keep You Misinformed, appeared on Thursday’s Hannity show to discuss the Climategate scandal.

Horner and Hannity discussed, among other things, Horner’s Intent to File Suit notices on behalf of the Competitive Enterprise Institute, where he is a senior fellow, prepared in response to NASA’s stonewalling for nearly three years on releasing documents requested under the Freedom of Information Act.

The information sought is directly relevant to the exploding “ClimateGate” scandal revealing document destruction, coordinated efforts in the U.S. and UK to avoid complying with both countries’ freedom of information laws, and apparent and widespread intent to defraud at the highest levels of international climate science bodies.

This information, the ongoing research for which we pay with our taxes, should be a matter of public record. It has influenced the Kyoto Protocol, Cap-and-Trade legislation, efforts by the EPA to regulate emissions, and will likely influence the upcoming Copenhagen conference. Public and international policy has for years been based largely on this data. We deserve to know the basis for these policies.

Furthermore, NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (which conducts the climate change studies) is directly implicated in the CRU scandal, as employee Gavin A. Schmidt runs the Tides Foundation-funded Environmental Media Services‘ RealClimate.org blog, whose purpose is to defend Michael Mann’s debunked and defrauded “hockey stick” model of global warming. (You knew there just had to be a Soros angle, didn’t you?)…

Climategate Jumps the Pond: NASA Continues to Stonewall on FOIA Requests

http://newsrealblog.com/2009/12/04/climategate-jumps-the-pond-nasa-continues-to-stonewall-on-foia-requests/

It’s not just the scientists at the Climate Research Unit of East Anglia University who may have criminally violated the Freedom of Information Act (some profesors in the UK and some in the USA), NASA has been stonewalling a FOIA request as well… for years.

Chris Horner, a senior fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, said NASA has refused for two years to provide information under the Freedom of Information Act that would show how the agency has shaped its climate data and would explain why the agency has repeatedly had to correct its data going as far back as the 1930s.

“I assume that what is there is highly damaging,” Mr. Horner said. “These guys are quite clearly bound and determined not to reveal their internal discussions about this.”

NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies is saying they’re “working on” the FOIA request.

Right. For two years?!

The public affairs guy at GISS is using  the Sgt. Schultz defense (”I hear nothing, I see nothing, I know nothing!”)

He said he was unfamiliar with the British controversy and couldn’t say whether NASA was susceptible to the same challenges to its data. The White House has dismissed the British e-mails as irrelevant…

Climategate Spreading to NASA?

A leading climate researcher is planning to sue NASA for withholding information about climate-change data used to establish environmental regulations. Christopher Horner, Senior Fellow with the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI), has notified NASA and its Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) that he will sue in late December if that agency does not fulfill Freedom of Information (FOI) requests Horner placed in 2007.

Stephen Dinan of The Washington Times reports the FOI requests deal with repeated changes NASA has made to average temperature readings. Within the past three years, NASA has reported four different years as having the hottest temperatures on record: 1998 was first replaced by 1934, only to be switched again a short time later by a tie between 1998 and 2006. NASA originally recalculated the numbers in response to pressure from Steve McIntyre with ClimateAudit.org, who questioned disparities between official NASA tabulations and raw data reported by individual weather stations.

Dinan reports Horner’s prediction that “what is there is highly damaging. These guys are quite clearly bound and determined not to reveal their internal discussions about this.” According to Dinan, NASA spokesman Mark Hess says the agency is collecting “responsive, relevant” information to answer Horner’s requests. Hess could not explain why NASA has taken so long to provide the records. The FOI Act allows up to 30 days for agencies to respond…
