What We Know About Our Climate- AAAS publishes a must read summary.
Posted by Dan Satterfield
Click to get the summary. This is an excellent resource for teachers written by the top experts in the field, and based on the latest peer-reviewed research.
I’m glad this report tackles the myth (in America) that scientists are divided over the reality of our changing climate, and it’s cause. It’s totally and utterly false. Don’t believe me?? Go look at the journals like NATURE, SCIENCE, any AMS journal etc.
If someone tells you that what’s in this report is wrong, you should ask them why they have not published the evidence why in a scientific journal. That’s the difference between science and opinion, because science is based on observation, experiment, and the cold hard facts.
Better yet, just quote Neil de Grasse Tyson:
Dan Satterfield has worked as an on air meteorologist for 32 years in Oklahoma, Florida and Alabama. Forecasting weather is Dan's job, but all of Earth Science is his passion. This journal is where Dan writes about things he has too little time for on air. Dan blogs about peer-reviewed Earth science for Junior High level audiences and up.
When someone tells me anything about climate science is wrong, I ask them if they want to bet, something I learned from Dr Tyson when he appeared on Bill Maher’s show and debated denier Bob Lutz.
They never want to bet.
