statements on this.
Following the earlier theft of data and emails from CRU in 2009, a number of inquiries and reviews were completed.
- "the scientific reputation of Professor Jones and CRU remains intact"
(House of Commons Science and Technology Committee)
- "we saw no evidence of any deliberate scientific malpractice in any of the work of the Climatic Research Unit"
(Lord Oxburgh Science Assessment Panel)
- "their rigour and honesty as scientists are not in doubt"
(Sir Muir Russell Independent Climate Change Emails Review)
- "careful examination of the e-mails and their full context shows that the petitioners' claims are exaggerated
and are not a material or reliable basis to question the validity and credibility of the body of [climate] science"
(US Environmental Protection Agency)
