But 157MB of data is available here : http://www.filedropper.com/foi2009, As far as I could see it contains 1073 emails. If indeed you are correct that only the e-mails that "suit the denialist agenda" were released, it still implies there is a lot damming evidence provided. > > Those which do not suit the denialist agenda of the hackers did not > appear-odd eh? > Oh you mean they should be like IPCC and provide evidence contrary to their cause?

Is there better entertainment? Well if the issues were not so serious. David, have you ever stopped to think, that perhaps the warming is real, but not caused by human activity. Givent that currently we are in one of the colder periods of Earth history and I do not mean last thousand years, I am looking at the last 700 million years or so, perhaps the only way is up. I do not believe that at this stage we are in any position to influence the climate. So the only chance is to learn to live with the changes the nature will impose. Hence I do not believe that squandering trillions on reducing carbon dioxide emissions is helpful at all. Perhaps we should be spending that money on learning to live the higher temperatures.
