Transcript
Climate Literacy
The Essential Principles
Climate Science Literacy
is an understanding of
the climates influence on you and society
and your influence on climate
The Sun is the primary source of
energy for Earth’s climate system
Climate is regulated by complex
interactions among
components of the
Earth system
Life on Earth
depends on,
is shaped by,
and affects
climate
Climate varies over space and time through
both natural and man-made processes
Our understanding of the climate system
is improved through observations,
theoretical studies, and modeling
Human activities are impacting the
climate system
Climate change will have
consequences for the Earth
system and human lives
Guiding Principle:
Humans can take actions to reduce
climate change and its impacts
Mitigation?
Adaptation?
