This book is about how climate science works and why you should absolutely trust some of its conclusions and absolutely distrust others. Climate change raises new, foundational challenges in science. It requires us to question what we know and how we know it. The subject is important for society but the science is young and history tells us that scientists can get things wrong before they get them right. How, then, can we judge what information is reliable and what is open to question? Stainforth goes to the heart of the climate change problem to answer this question. He describes the fundamental characteristics of climate change and shows how they undermine the application of traditional research methods, demanding new approaches to both scientific and societal questions. He argues for a rethinking of how we go about the study of climate change in the physical sciences, the social sciences, economics, and policy. The subject requires nothing less than a restructuring of academic research to enable integration of expertise across diverse disciplines and perspectives. An effective global response to climate change relies on us agreeing about the underlying, foundational, scientific knowledge. Our universities and research institutes fail to provide the necessary clarity - they fail to separate the robust from the questionable - because they do not acknowledge the peculiar and unique challenges of climate prediction. Furthermore, the widespread availability of computer simulations often leads to research becoming divorced from understanding, something that risks undermining the relevance of research conclusions. This book takes the reader on a journey through the maths of complexity, the physics of climate, philosophical questions regarding the origins and robustness of knowledge, and the use of natural science in the economics and policy of climate change.

Like sleeping on a cloud!
Color: Green Bamboo(2300gsm), Size: Queen, Color: Green Bamboo(2300gsm), Size: Queen
This mattress topper exceeded my expectations. It's very comfortable, provides excellent support, and helps relieve pressure points while I sleep. The foam conforms well to the body without feeling too soft, and the cover feels cool and pleasant. Since using it, I sleep much better and wake up more comfortable. Excellent quality for the price!

bury me in snuggle sac!!
soo i’ve purchased 6 of the fuzzy blankets, 2 packs of the socks, the cardigan, and now this gem of a cooling blanket! im usually a heavy fluffy blanket person, regardless of season or temperature, but living in florida it’s sometimes a struggle. figured i’d give this one a try since i’m obsessed with snuggle sac. the blanket is very thin, intentionally, and is such a deliciously soft and unique material! the one side is cooling and really cold to the touch! both sides look very rich and high quality. definitely makes a difference so i’m not waking up hot anymore! in order to replicate my heavy blanket habit, i use the snuggle sac ribbed blanket on top of it, and can always remove it in the night. so happy with my purchase! always keeping my eye out for new releases from them.

Cools quite well, about 85% but works well for hot flashes
Being in perimenopause I tend to have hot flashes at the most inopportune times, especially in the middle of winter where I'm sleeping practically naked and everyone in the house is sleeping with hoodies and sweats and extra blankets. I just found out that one side is extremely cooler than the other and the first night I had it I washed it gently dried it in a very light, delicate setting on my dryer. In fact, I didn't let it dry all the way and let it hang up and the first three nights I slept with this blanket. I slept an entire 8 hours instead of the usual three because hot flashes like to do that to you. Wake you up at 2:00 in the morning or 5:00 in the morning when you have to get up for work in an hour. It's very light. It smells great. It's very soft and one side like I said is cooler than the other and you will feel so much better wearing this or sleeping with this rather. I'm
