Alarmed that decades of crucial climate measurements could vanish under a hostile Trump administration, scientists have begun a feverish attempt to copy reams of government data onto independent servers in hopes of safeguarding it from any political interference. The efforts include a "guerrilla archiving event" in Toronto where experts will copy irreplaceable public data, meetings at the University of Pennsylvania focused on how to download as much federal data as possible in the coming weeks, and a collaboration of scientists and database experts who are compiling an online site to harbor scientific information. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/ct-scientists-climate-data-donald-trump-20161213-story.html Edited by CautionaryTales, Dec 13 2016, 06:04 PM.

It isn't "fake news" it might be an over reaction, but it is something that is happening. Personally I think it's prudent in light of the putz that will be in charge soon. That means it isn't "fake news" Learn what "fake news" is. Edited by CautionaryTales, Dec 13 2016, 06:19 PM.

There is no need to delete data. Simply adding back in all those temp recording stations in rural areas that the leftists dropped while removing the stations that have been compromised by heat islanding will lead to a significant difference in the models.

What's the point...Russia will just hack them anyways..... The irony is ...if the were really worried they would do a mass peer to peer torrent dump so their "valuable" research could be shared with the world... One has to ask if their research is so valuable why don't they share it with the world for all to see to shame the evil Trump into capitulation????? CT ????

Conservatism has removed the word "responsibility" from the Republican Platform and from their personal dictionaries all together. |

You don't get to make up what "fake news "is. That isn't how facts work. I know you have your opinion and you are welcome to it. But the facts (in this case) are a matter of reality. |

Are you sure? When you guys ban books like Huck Finn & To Kill a Mockingbird you don't burn them? Oh I get it, banning them is "liberal" but burning them would hurt the environment. Very progressive. |
