This in turn has caused the Earth’s land and ocean surface temperature to rise 1.3 degrees Celsius above the 20th century average, resulting in an increased frequency of extreme weather events. The fight against climate change is becoming more urgent, but tackling greenhouse gas emissions has so...
Global climate change is predicted to negatively impact regions around the world through extreme weather events, increasing temperatures, heat waves and droughts, and rising sea levels. Such changes could potentially threaten food and water supplies, displace those in high risk areas, exacerbate existing...

Climate justice is increasingly prominent in climate change communication and advocacy but little is known about public understanding of the concept or how widely it resonates with different groups. In our global survey of 5,627 adults in 11 countries spanning the global north and south, most part...
(for example, temperature, rainfall and sea level rise) to enable quick and accessible information to inform decision-making. For example, interviewees praised the SYR summary and recommend the IPCC continue down this route. Such short, two-page summaries with key statistics and facts (a summary...
Even then, climate change cognition was convolved with education, given that our laboratory’s budding public-education site, HowGlobalWarmingWorks.org [3] was also introduced at that conference (orally––during Ranney et al. [1] and Clark et al. [2]).4 We will return to such public-...
Below you will find a number of articles on the problems our environment faces - and this is just a small sample - the tip of the iceberg. To any reasonably minded person the reports and statistics are frightening. The further problem is that humans are notoriouslyblind to the obvious. ...
two days later reproduced a telling paragraph from the Herald’s version, which suggested that McEwan was a climate change sceptic and which The Age had excised. He was expanding on the proposition that “we need not only reliable data but their expression in the rigorous use of statistics”...
the next section, we present some statistics and facts on the historical development and on current trends related to fossil fuels, coal in particular. These include fossil fuel reserves, time until exhaustion, energy investments, carbon intensity, and CO2emissions in advanced and developing countries...
