"Climategate": 10 years later, what has changed?

Nearly 10 years ago, hackers stole thousands of e-mails and other climate research documents from the University of East Anglia.

The scandal known as "Climategate" shook the scientific world.

Skeptics discovered a small amount of e-mails indicating that scientists deliberately manipulated the data to exaggerate the evidence of climate change.

This was not true, but it is believed that what followed shaped public opinion and probably influenced the UN climate deal this year.

Kayleen Devlin informs Newsnight about how battle lines and public opinion have changed since then.
