Learn
what climate change is, and how it affects the planet
Climate Change poses an increasing threat to the stability of
Earth’s systems. If we want to protect our planet from dangerous and
unprecedented change, first we must understand the science behind climate
change.
On this course you will explore this science, looking back
across 4 billion years of Earth’s history to help you learn the difference
between ‘natural’ from ‘human’ induced change; looking to the present to see
how the impacts of climate change are already being felt; and finally looking
to the future to see what it might hold for our planet.
