GLOBAL WARMING: How Urgent Is Climate Change?10.1126/science.318.5854.1230Having issued their fair and balanced consensus document, many climate scientists now cite oft-overlooked reasons for immediate and forceful action to curb global warmingKerr
The IPCC used computer models to simulate climate change and discovered that only models that included human contributions to global warming portrayed an accurate representation of today's climate. When the models did not include such considerations, the climates they simulated did not resemble our own...
As we begin to emerge out of yet another mild winter, Canadians are once again being reminded of just how acutely global warming has changed Canada’s winter climate. The impacts of this mild winter were felt across the country and touched all aspects of winter...
