气候研究小组电邮争议(英语:Climatic Research Unit email controversy),俗称气候门Climategate[2][3],是指2009年11月发生在英国的隶属东安格里亚大学University of East Anglia,简称UEA)的气候研究小组(CRU:Climate Research Unit)被黑客入侵、与围绕温室效应研究相关的一系列电子邮件和档案被公开的事件[4][5][6]。事件发生在于丹麦首都哥本哈根举行的2009年联合国气候变化大会之前数个星期,入侵者从CRU的服务器里抄走数以千计的电邮副本及电脑档案,并且透过互联网分发到世界多个地方储藏。

事件最初由对气候变化怀疑论者从众多电邮及档案里精挑细选出来[7],刊登在他们的网志上[8],加上专栏作家James Delingpole英语James Delingpole的推波助澜,把争议事件称之为“气候门”[9]事件,使事情如滚雪球般壮大[7]。他们认为有关全球变暖的事件,其实背后有阴谋论在背后操控。

事件经过

2009年11月,某黑客入侵CRU的服务器,将存储在上面的个人档案以及发现的电子邮件发布于网络上[4](亦有人认为并非黑客所为,而是内部告发[10])。1996年以后的1000封以上的电子邮件以及3000份以上的内部文件被盗取。有关部门于是对此进行调查。对温室效应持有反对意见的团体认为,那些电子邮件通信是为了将气候变迁归咎于人类活动,而对数据进行篡改的密谋。他们将此事件作为科学史上的一大丑闻进行宣传,并模仿水门事件(Watergate)将此事件命名为“气候门(Climategate)”。
