Despite ongoing investigations in the US and UK, EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson dismissed Climategate during yesterday’s Senate EPW hearing, saying she sees no need to investigate the matter. She vowed to implement job-killing global warming regulations despite growing evidence that the scientific basis of those regulations is crumbling.

Senator Inhofe asked Jackson to halt the endangerment finding until investigations over leaked emails showing collusion by scientists to distort, conceal, and delete inconvenient data are completed.

As the Associated Press reported on December 1st, “Britain’s University of East Anglia says the director of its prestigious Climatic Research Unit is stepping down pending an investigation into allegations that he overstated the case for man-made climate change. The university says Phil Jones will relinquish his position until the completion of an independent review into allegations that he worked to alter the way in which global temperature data was presented.â€
