We are living in a world making decisions for the future based on climate change science from the 1990s that was based mainly on data from Greenland and Antarctic ice cores. Temperature and atmospheric carbon dioxide levels appeared to move together in a highly compressed graph that was the center piece of the book, An Inconvenient Truth. But which line was really leading the other? Wisdom of the day forgot the rule that says the movement of two lines on a graph does not prove anything. At best the lines can only suggest a relationship. Based on the very little scientific evidence available in the 1990’s, climate scientists advocating that carbon dioxide led temperature prevailed. Were they right?
A wealth of climate change science has become available since the early 2000s and keeps on coming. This site reports climate science research:
from articles written by climate scientists,
leading a team of researchers
which were independently peer reviewed and
published in a scientific journal, as well as,
information from NASA and NOAA.
Links to the research are shown in blue hot links and at the bottom of the topics instead of later in footnotes to encourage you to check out the source. With one clearly indicated exception, everything you will see on this website is based on research by accredited climate scientists. Spew and speculation from the internet are not welcome here.
Lastly, reading scientific research can be heavy going. You have two formats to choose from:
Climate Change - A Quick Check is the light read, just the basics and minimal documentation.

Climate Change - A Reality Check goes deeper into the science of climate science.
