Climate Change Information for 3BGEO & Science

I've come across a great resource which would be perfect for use within unit 3B Geography.  It's a booklet called The Science of Climate Change: Questions and Answers.  Its written by the Australian Academy of Science, which also means that lots of the statistics and impacts are focussed on Australia too.

Its very readable, whilst also being informative and discusses the answers to 7 key climate change questions:
  1. What is Climate Change?
  2. How has the Earth's climate changed in the distant past?
  3. How has the Earth's climate changed in the recent past?
  4. Are human activities causing climate change?
  5. How do we expect climate to evolve in the future?
  6. What are the consequences of Climate Change?
  7. How do we deal with the uncertainty in the science?
Its really perfect for the 1st few lessons of 3b Gegraphy on climate change and would be useful in science too.  Lucy
