About This Collection

It affects more than just a change in the weather and refers to seasonal changes over a long period of time. These climate patterns play a fundamental role in shaping natural ecosystems, and the human economies and cultures that depend on them.

It may be used inter-changably with global warming as they’re closely related. Global warming causes climates to change. Here is NASA discussion on the two terms, What's In A Name?

We recommend you listen and learn which is the best advice we can give to begin to understand the challenges before us.

Uncertainty, knowledge and climate change by Stephan Lewandowsky

We spoke with guest editors Stephan Lewandowsky, Chair in Cognitive Psychology at the University of Bristol, and Richard Pancost, Professor of Biochemistry. They discussed their contributions to *Philosophical Transactions*.

Their work explores the complex relationship between scientific uncertainty regarding climate change and knowledge drawn from physical, economic, and social perspectives. This interdisciplinary examination offers valuable insights into a critical global issue.
