Feeling the Heat

The Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego produced this movie and, has been a research leader on climate change and variability for more then 50 years. The Scripps scientists are playing key roles in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), a United Nations-sponsored agency that has synthesized climate change research in a series of reports since 1990. The panel is releasing the fourth such report in phases through November 2007. Scripps researchers took part in the IPCCs opening report on observed climate change and participated in a press conference and international media interviews. In October, the IPCC and former Vice President Al Gore were awarded the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released a 21-page Summary for Policy-makers based on its latest assessment report, the result of an exhaustive international scientific effort by hundreds of scientists lasting three years. In sobering terms, the summary concluded that recent warming of the climate system is unequivocal and that most of it is at least 90 percent certain to be due to human activities!
