Censorship at high levels -- Global Warming department

| No Comments
An interesting article at the Telegraph regarding two noted Scientific Journals, Science and Nature and their refusal to review some papers:
Leading scientific journals 'are censoring debate on global warming'
Two of the world's leading scientific journals have come under fire from researchers for refusing to publish papers which challenge fashionable wisdom over global warming.

A British authority on natural catastrophes who disputed whether climatologists really agree that the Earth is getting warmer because of human activity, says his work was rejected by the American publication, Science, on the flimsiest of grounds.

A separate team of climate scientists, which was regularly used by Science and the journal Nature to review papers on the progress of global warming, said it was dropped after attempting to publish its own research which raised doubts over the issue.

The controversy follows the publication by Science in December of a paper which claimed to have demonstrated complete agreement among climate experts, not only that global warming is a genuine phenomenon, but also that mankind is to blame.
This will be damning if people can back it up... And it's not just Scientific Journals here is a bit more (the entire article is excellent).
Concern about bias within climate research has spread to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, whose findings are widely cited by those calling for drastic action on global warming.

In January, Dr Chris Landsea, an expert on hurricanes with the United States National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration, resigned from the IPCC, claiming that it was "motivated by pre-conceived agendas" and was "scientifically unsound".
But of course, would you expect anything less from an organization so closely tied to the United Nations. It wouldn't do to come up with anything that might say that Kyoto was a bad thing now would it...
