According to an anonymous survey taken by 3,247 scientists, 5% admitted to throwing out data that didn't agree with their intended result. 15% admitted to changing their results to satisfy their sponsors. 13.5% used research designs that they knew would not give accurate results. This certainly makes one wonder about the veracity of the global warning threat.
