The Climatic Research Unit (CRU) at the University of East Anglia is reported to have lost or destroyed the original raw data used for global temperature records. In response to Freedom of Information requests, the unit claimed it only possesses "homogenized" or manipulated data because it lacked storage resources in the 1980s. The hosts highlight this as a major blow to the credibility of the scientific consensus on warming.

The Climatic Research Unit (CRU) admitted it no longer holds the original raw data used to create global surface temperature records cited by the IPCC. Responding to Freedom of Information requests, the unit claimed the data was lost or destroyed during the 1980s due to limited storage resources. This revelation challenges the transparency of the research supporting climate change legislation.
