THE BASIC SCIENCE
Due diligence with the empirical data and the latest conclusions of mainstream science avoids two dangers:
It prevents us from being too casual about the severity of the crisis we are in, and it prevents us from undue alarmism.
The document below summarises the key points of climate science in a step by step way. All the analysis is rooted in the latest research and data, and without compromising that, it breaks everything down into language and metaphors that can be readily understood.
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.

Long-lived greenhouse gases in the atmosphere
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. These 6 graphs illustrate the most fundamental facts about climate change. They are made from the baseline data that human civilisation is dependent upon.
