Climate Science Resources

Skeptical Science

For many, this is the go-to website for understanding the flaws in denier’s arguments about climate change. The web-site is organized to make it easy to find climate myths including a list of the most used climate myths and a search feature for the more unusual ones. Users can read “what the science” says according to their level of comfort with science: basic, intermediate, and advanced. There are lots of other resources and you can subscribe to receive the latest science news.

Project Drawdown

Our mission is to help the world reach “Drawdown”— the point in the future when levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere stop climbing and start to steadily decline, thereby stopping catastrophic climate change — as quickly, safely, and equitably as possible.

IPCC Report

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the United Nations body for assessing the science related to climate change. The IPCC was created to provide policymakers with regular scientific assessments on climate change, its implications and potential future risks, as well as to put forward adaptation and mitigation options.
