Taking up residence
5:15 | Gavin Cawley explains the carbon cycle, how human activity is causing an increase of CO2 in our atmosphere, and uses bank accounts to show how we can know humans are increasing atmospheric CO2.
Reinforcing feedback
5:33 | Ice core records tell us global warming causes the ocean to emit more CO2. More atmospheric CO2 in-turn traps more heat, making this is a reinforcing feedback loop.
Increasing greenhouse effect
4:09 | Mark Richardson examines how greenhouse gases intensify the greenhouse effect and busts the myth that our atmosphere is “saturated.”
Measuring from space
4:24 | Sarah Green explains how satellites monitor outgoing radiation to measure global warming. She concludes by busting the myth that CO2 must be unimportant in our atmosphere because it is only a trace gas.
Structure of the atmosphere
4:50 | Mark Richardson examines one of the human fingerprints being observed in the structure of the atmosphere and debunks a myth about the elusive tropospheric hot spot.

5:35 | Robert Way explains how Antarctic sea ice has been changing in recent years and introduces the modern mystery of how Antarctic land ice is changing.
Building a robust temperature record
6:13 | In this lecture, Kevin Cowtan explains global temperature is measured how we know the thermometer record is accurate enough to detect human-caused warming.
Shrinking Glaciers
5:59 | Robert Way describes glaciers and the way they are changing globally.
Climate change vs global warming
6:32 | “Climate change” and “global warming” are phrases that are often used interchangeably, but they do mean different things.
Hot records
6:21 | Kevin Cowtan explains the difference between two terms we use quite often, “weather” and “climate,” and what breaking records for temperature can teach us about each.
Heat Build Up
5:12 | This lecture, presented by Kevin Cowtan, covers the role that heat trapping gases play in global warming.

Ideological Bias
6:32 | Scott Mandia describes how ideology and world views influence our beliefs about climate change.
Psychological Barriers to Concern about Climate Change
6:59 | Why is it difficult for people to care about and act on climate change? We call these psychological barriers “dragons of inaction.”
Knowledge Based Consensus
7:56 | When should a consensus be considered scientific, or “knowledge-based”?
Media Balance as Bias
7:07 | The media plays a crucial role in communicating climate science to the public, but the journalistic norm of balance, in the case of climate change, can misinform the public about the science.
Five Characteristics of Science Denial

Manufacturing Doubt
5:52 | Dr. John Cook explains some of the most common methods used to manufacture public doubt about climate science.
Scientific method
6:01 | Climate change is real, so why the controversy and debate? Learn to make sense of the science and to respond to climate change denial.
Why global temperatures never go up in straight lines
14:31
Energy Sector and Climate Reforms in China
1:39:15 | Two major political goals are animating change in China’s energy sector: the goal of peaking carbon dioxide emissions on or before 2030 as part of China’s international climate commitment and the drive for energy market and pricing reform.
