Abstract

Atmospheric scientists tell us that mankind is changing the climate, and is setting in motion forces that can make essentially irreversible changes in the climate of the future. Naysayers dispute whether mankind is even capable of changing the climate. Today we are hearing more from the scientists and less from the naysayers. This presentation will review highlights of the science and the political response to the scientific facts, at both the national and international levels. Domestically, the next chapter will be written by the incoming administration.
