Public Funding of Global Warming Research

    On the subject of Promoting Global Warming Theory, there is a short article by CH in the Government Concentrates Section of the September 24 Issue of C&E News.
    CH reports that a Virginia trial court prohibited release of climate researcher Michael Mann's emails on the subject of global warming.
    Michael Mann was a University of Virginia researcher, who basically established the global warming theory involving carbon dioxide by use of public money grants.
    It seems to me that the Virginia trial court is way off base on this decision. Public money used to support public research should justify public ownership and release of research information to the public. Conversely, any research supported by private funding should be considered private property.
