7/26/11, "Fighting Climate Change by Not Focusing on Climate Change," Time Magazine, Bryan Walsh
Time Magazine's author would be out of a job if he looked more closely at this own words. Billions have been diverted from American taxpayers and a generation of lives wasted on a whim:
- "even if global warming wasn't real," these are all good things to do' ....
Time, Walsh: "...Even as carbon emissions keep rising and the most of the U.S. sweats through a summer that feels like a trailer for global warming to come. What's needed in this long hot season is an oblique approach to climate change, one that sidesteps the roadblocks by taking advantage of popular, no-regrets
- actions that are worth doing
- even if global warming wasn't real."...
And making billions for organized crime can't be bad, along with references to a hot summer in the US-which is weather--not climate.
Time has a financial interest in the global warming "industry" and with at least one admittedly criminal company, Siemens:
Time Magazine website featured its partnership with Siemens on 7/5/10.
------------------------
1/24/11, "Greece to seek damages from Siemens over bribes," Reuters
- Siemens plead guilty to massive bribery and kickbacks and paid a fine of at least $1.6 billion. Perhaps like BP, Siemens thought by hooking up with the "green" or "climate" industry, people would forget they were crooks.
==========================
- 12/15/2008, CNN/Money: "According to the SEC, the company also used bribes to develop mobile telephone networks in Bangladesh,
- Siemens (SI) allegedly used kickback schemes to sell power stations and equipment to Iraq under the United Nations' Oil for Food Program. In all, the company engaged in more than $1.4 billion in bribes, earning more than $1.1 billion on its illegal transactions."...
- SIEMENS is mentioned in ClimateGate emails, 10/5/09 and 10/6/09:
- A day later, Oct. 6, an emailer says he's in talks with Siemens about money for CO2 research. (Phil Jones blames "right wing web sites" for their troubles):
Subject: Co2 Data
From: Martin Lutyens
To: Andrew Manning
Dear Andrew,
I just came across an article in The Week, called "The case of the vanishing data". It
writes in a rather wry and sceptical way about your UEA colleagues Phil Jones and Tom
Wigley , saying that only their "homogenised" or "adjusted" historical data is
available, and the original, raw data has gone missing. Apparently some other
environmental gurus now want to look at the original data and were "fobbed off"....
Could you comment on this please, as someone (eg Siemens Corp.) may pick this up and I think we should all be forearmed by knowing what really happened and
- what to say if asked.

Andrew,
Getting a bit fed up with these baseless allegations....
It is the right wing web sites doing all this, presumably in the build up to Copenhagen.

Hi Phil,
Is this another witch hunt (like Mann et al.)? How should I respond to the below?
(I'm in the process of trying to persuade Siemens Corp. (a company with half a million employees in 190 countries!) to donate me a little cash to do some CO2 measurments here in the UK - looking promising, so the last thing I need is news articles
calling into question (again) observed temperature increases - I thought we'd moved the debate beyond this, but seems that these sceptics are real die-hards!!). Kind regards,
Andrew"....****

"People literally will starve to death in parts of the world,
- it always happens when food prices go up,"
Bloomberg told reporters after addressing a U.N. General Assembly debate on climate change.
The new U.S. law, which came into force late last year, increased fivefold the required amount of blending of biofuels like corn ethanol -- creating higher demand for the grain that
- will push up corn prices."...
