The mission of the nonprofit advocacy group Science and Public Policy Institute is to promote "sound public policy based on sound science." [2]With a strong emphasis on global warming denial, SPPI was established in the middle of 2007.
The Geological Society of America (GSA) concurs with assessments by the National Academies of Science (2005), the National Research Council (2006), and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2007) that global climate has warmed and that human activities (mainly greenhouse‐gas emissions) account for most of the warming since the ...
The first chapter describes the expected effects of climate change with one degree Celsius (1 °C) increase in average global temperature since pre-industrial times.. The second chapter describes the effects of two degrees average temperature and so forth until Chapter 6 which shows the expected effects of an increase of six Celsius degrees (6 °C) average global temperature.
Scaletti agreed that sound has the power to convey a lot of meaning. "People know that because of language," she said, "but they think everything else is music." That's why she's carving a new ...
