Why does Climategate matter? Who cares whether the climate data on a computer at some obscure English university has been deliberately corrupted? <\/p>\n

In one form or another, I have had to answer these questions from dozens of readers in the three months since thousands of e-mails and computer files were leaked from the Climate Research Unit (CRU) at the University of East Anglia. <\/p>\n

There are plenty of ways in which these disclosures have been crucial, but the principal change has been the uncertainty creeping into the remarks of former True Believers. Some of those who for years have insisted the science is ?settled,? are now admitting we don?t know all we need to before making trillion-dollar policy decisions. <\/p>\n

Consider the remarks Phil Jones, the former head of CRU, made last week to the BBC. Prof. Jones, who has stepped down from his directorship of the CRU pending official investigations into the leaks, told the Beeb there has been no \u201cstatistically significant\u201d global warming since 1995 – that\u2019s the past 15 years!
