Paleoclimatology: Is Climate Change Natural?

The climate has changed before, so why are we worried now? How do we actually know climate change is “our fault?” To find out, I spoke to paleoenvironmental expert Dr. Jane Teranes, a teaching professor at Scripps Institution of Oceanography.

Selected readings:

• Fourth National Climate Assessment - Chapter 1: Overview
• The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)
