the independent Climate Change Email Review – an introduction

The independent Climate Change Email Review was announced in December 2009 after emails from the University of East Anglia’s Climate Research Unit were hacked and published online. Sir Muir Russell, Chair of the Judicial Appointments Board for Scotland and former Principal and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Glasgow, was appointed to lead the review. At this briefing Sir Muir introduced members of the team, explain the remit of the review and clarify the issues that it will be investigating.

Further information about the Review, including biographies of the panel members, can be found at the Review’s website.
