Environmental Protection Agency gets caught out on CO2

This is not the first time that the EPA in the United States has been caught manufacturing results according to predetermined outcomes.   As politically incorrect as it is to say, they did this in relation to secondhand tobacco smoke and again by simply choosing to ignore evidence that conflicted with what it wanted to find.   Examiner.com's Thomas Fuller describes himself as a "liberal Democrat who happens to lean towards the skeptic arguments regarding AGW."   And he was certainly initially sceptical about the claims made by the EPA insider.   The series of emails between him and the insider are discussed at Watts Up With That?   His article is The EPA's internal nightmare over global warming: Part 1   Hmmm, part 1? Sounds like there is more sceptical goodness to come. Can't wait. A source inside the Environmental Protection Agency confirmed many of the claims made by analyst Alan Carlin, the economist/physicist who yesterday went public with accusations that science was being ignored in evaluating the danger of CO2.   The source, who chooses not to be identified for fear of retaliation, said that Carlin was rebuffed in his attempt to introduce scientific evidence that does not accord with the EPA's view of global warming, which largely relies on IPCC reports. The source also saw Carlin's report and said that it was 'based on 8 points of peer-reviewed, recent and relevant scientific publications' that cast doubt on the wisdom of regulating CO2 as a pollutant.
