James Hansen’s Blog and Climate Science Updates

Hey Class!

As we are reading Storms of my Grandchildren it is also relevant to check out the updates to the climate science on James Hansen's website and blog, where you can also find loads of other presentations, videos, and information that he has contributed to. Excellent source of information!

Cheers, CCs

What the freck is a declaration?

1656   H. Phillippes Purchasers Pattern (1676) 57   This Table is so plain, that it needs no declaration.

From the Oxford English Dictionary:
  • The action of making clear or clearing up (anything obscure or not understood); elucidation, explanation, interpretation.
  • The setting forth or expounding of a topic; exposition, description, relation.
  • A proclamation or public statement as embodied in a document, instrument, or public act.
Some well known declarations:

Declaration of Sentiments

United States Declaration of Independence

Universal Declaration of Human Rights
