Climategate

Over the Copenhagen climate conference lies the shadow of “Climategate,” emails and documents hacked from a server at the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia in England.

And that raises a critical question: did Climategate play a role in this failure to act? Some observers believe it did and, as an illustration, point to the fate of the Copenhagen climate summit[…]which took place only a few weeks after the leaking of the CRU’s emails.

The "Climategate" computer hacking scandal that rocked the scientific world is to be made into a BBC film.
