"The e-mails leaked from the University of East Anglia's Climatic
Research Unit (CRU) in November presented an early Christmas present to

"A fuller reading of the e-mails from CRU in Norwich, UK, does show a
sobering amount of rude behaviour and verbal faux pas, but nothing that
challenges the scientific consensus of climate change. Still, the
incident provides a good opportunity to point out that — as in any

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) highlighted 54 'key
uncertainties' that complicate climate science.
