Climate Science Explained

A rigorous, readable one-stop guide to how Earth’s climate works and how to evaluate climate claims. It explains energy balance, greenhouse gases, aerosols, natural variability, paleoclimate, temperature records, satellites, ocean heat, sea level, ice, the water cycle, extremes, attribution, climate models, scenarios, carbon budgets, impacts, mitigation, adaptation, climate policy, and practical verification. Includes dated 2026 context from WMO, NOAA, NASA, and UNEP while separating weather from climate, single years from long-term warming, and projections from predictions.
