Climate Change

So, for those who are looking for the 'scientific background knowledge' on climate change for our Model UN summit, I would like to suggest a few possibilities.
1) The official documentation site: Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, created by UNEP and WMO (world meteorological organization)
2) People on campus like Dr. Andrew Weaver and others in the Earth and Ocean Science department.
3) Earthweek Magazine: A Diary of The Planet: Current climate events around the world.

Hopefully these give you a bit of a background on some of the issues that are relevant to UNEP. The IPCC website has so much information, it is tough to wade through it. The recent posters created (1) (2) (3) might help.

I hope these help!
