When hackers gained access to the documents of the climate research centre of UK-based East Anglia University and leaked confidential data, including thousands of emails and documents between UK and US scientists over the past 10 years have led to accusations that scientists exaggerated the crisis.
Aftermath of the ‘Climate gate’ scandal a major threat has emerged out from United States, when the Sarah Palin the 2008 Republican nominee for vice president and governor of Alaska from 2006 to 2009 reinforced criticisms against the summit with the support of these fresh rumours. Her contention is that these e-mails revealed leading climate experts’ deliberately destroying records, manipulated data to "hide the decline" in global temperatures, and tried to silence their critics by preventing them from publishing in peer-reviewed journals. The Rupublicians now slam President Barack Osama’s proposal very serious cut of long-term carbon emissions. Meeting such targets would require Congress to pass its cap-and-tax plans, which will result in job losses and unbearable energy costs!
“Mr President, don’t make promises in Copenhagen that we can’t keep,” Republican Congressman Mike Pence told a news conference along with six of his colleagues. They explained on their stand by explaining on the worst recession U.S is entangled into, the exposure of questionable science by email-scandal which intensified the revulsion for the consensus on climate change.
They accused that America has lost a lot of credibility when then Vice President Al Gore promised in Kyoto something he knew could never be passed by the US Congress now! As per their version President Obama will be just repeating the same mistake.
What a plight of the democracy in U.S when Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner, Ranking Member of the House Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming who came forward to serve his nation and the world!
He wants UN not make any concrete recommendations until it gets to the bottom of the email-scandal and said “This could be a conspiracy basically to shut out any contrary scientific opinion. We should not be making decisions that will cost the American rate payer billions or even trillions of dollars in higher electric and natural gas bills based upon scientific Fascism”
I suspect that that Republican leaders wants to outsmart for political ends and attempt to dilute the nerve of American initiative under Obama’s leadership in global affairs. This Anti-Obama factor plays a role behind the screen at Copenhagen.They call the mail -scandal as ‘Scientific Fascism’ and urges President Obama to backpedal arguing that there is no consensus favouring for it. In fact the Republicans are fascists expecting Americans to wear iron clad and keep isolated from the rest of the world! Too much of disgrace on their out-look of Internationalism. It is evident that even in U.S, Opposition is becoming more just to oppose without going into the merits of the issue to be opposed. Probably Republicans now-a days learn rhymes and jingles from Indian democracy?
