Australia's Chief Scientist Issues Climate Change: The Story So Far. (October 12, 2013)

 

A new paper released by the Office of the Chief Scientist yesterday summarises the changes to the global climate that are already happening.

The paper, ‘Climate Change: The story so far’ states that “While the future impacts of climate on global systems remain uncertain, there is increasing evidence that the activities of humans are changing the climate now”.

 

Including sections on the increased concentration of greenhouse gases and surface warming, the paper has been released to inform the public on the current findings of climate science.
