UQx Denial101x Making Sense of Climate Science Denial | UQx DENIAL101x 4.3.2.1 Confused decline @denial101x | Uploaded May 2015 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Peter Jacobs explains climate proxies, which estimate temperatures in the Earth's past. In particular, he looks at the divergence problem, where some tree-ring proxies diverge from recent instrumental measurements. About Denial101x...
Climate change is real, so why the controversy and debate? Learn to make sense of the science and to respond to climate change denial in Denial101x, a massive open online course (MOOC) from UQx and edX. Denial101x isn’t just a MOOC about climate change; it’s a MOOC about how people think about climate change.
