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 hosts critique the culinary offerings at the royal lunch, specifically focusing on a 2014 Olivier Leflève Rulli Premier Cru white wine. Curry describes the multi-course meal which included lightly smoked dove, turbo fish with beurre noisette, and a controversial dessert featuring marinated avocado, lemon curd, and vanilla ice cream.

A 160-page PDF report investigating the "Climategate" scandal has officially cleared scientists at the Climate Research Unit (CRU) of all dishonesty. The analysis argues that the leaked emails were taken out of context and are open to interpretation. The findings are dismissed by the speakers as a "bullcrap" attempt to move past the controversy and re-establish the narrative of man-made climate change.

A massive leak of emails and documents from the University of East Anglia's Climate Research Unit (CRU) is dubbed "ClimateGate." The leaked files allegedly show climate scientists manipulating data to support global warming theories. The discussion highlights the destruction of raw temperature data due to claimed storage space issues and the role of hackers in exposing institutional secrets.

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.
