Dear Secretary-General:
Last week, Dr Rajendra Pachauri, chairman of the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), announced that the UN would investigate emails released from the University of East Anglia's Climatic Research Unit (CRU). These emails reveal that several of the IPCC's top scientists may have engaged in efforts to, among other things, manipulate data, defame scientists with opposing viewpoints, and evade transparency laws.
