Climate consensusNature Climate Change, 2013, 3: 303. doi:10.1038/nclimate1875Collectively our individual lifestyle choices and support for or resistance to government policies make us — as members of society — key players in the climate change, and indeed any, debate.
Psychologists, sociologists and political scientists have focused on different factors shaping public views of global warming.
The good news for those concerned with climate communication is that there is a great deal of scientific agreement on the issue. The bad news is that climate is inherently uncertain -mainly because of the internal variability of the climate system.
climate models can deliver a range of results, and communicating to the general public that there is scientific consensus — despite the uncertainties — gets complicated.
Climate change experts have to work in the face of these inherent uncertainties.
