“The<\/em> essential science <\/span><\/p>\n

of climate change.” <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Not many have the time to read through complex and difficult scientific research papers. However, many would like to have an authoritative guide to what is going on above our heads.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Climate Academy is dedicated to making the key points of climate science understood in a clear, step-by-step way.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Its founder, Matthew Pye, has written an engaging and comprehensive guide in a downloadable book of 16 chapters. <\/p>\n

\n

It is rooted in the latest research and data, and without compromising, the analysis breaks everything down into language and metaphors that can be readily understood. <\/p>\n

Science can freeze frame reality. It can pull the past, present and future together into one place, so that we can get a good look at it. <\/span><\/p>\n

The 6 charts and graphs on the carousel opposite (click dots) illustrate the most fundamental facts about climate change. <\/span><\/p>\n
