"The theft and release of e-mails from the University of East
Anglia Climatic Research Unit provoked a huge furore over the integrity
of climate science.
"...Prof Edward Acton, the university's vice-chancellor, said he was disappointed that the perpetrators had not been caught:
"The misinformation and conspiracy theories circulating following the publication of the stolen emails - including the theory that the hacker was a disgruntled UEA employee - did real harm to public perceptions about the dangers of climate change.
The results of the independent inquiries and recent scientific studies have vindicated our scientists, who have returned to their important task of providing the best possible scientific information on this globally critical issue."
