On the final night of the Arctic Frontiers Conference in Tromso (a very serious annual gathering of business and science interests to talk about the emerging opportunities with the warming of northern Norway causing the permafrost to melt opening new oil and gas fields among other things) there was a gathering of all the 1,000 participants.

Three themes are emerging from the newly released emails: (1) prominent scientists central to the global warming debate are taking measures to conceal rather than disseminate underlying data and discussions; (2) these scientists view global warming as a political «cause» rather than a balanced scientific inquiry and (3) many of these scientists frankly admit to each other that much of the science is weak and dependent on deliberate manipulation of facts and data.

The most recent report (PDF) on climate science from the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change made clear that we still don't know how sensitive the climate system is to CO2, nor what disruptive feedbacks may emerge as ecosystems dry out, ice caps disappear and permafrost melts — all of which potentially could accelerate warming beyond human control.
