Summary of Steven E. Koonin's Unsettled
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 The questions of influence, response, and impact are the core of climate science. They are similar to the questions parents try to guide their children's development through example and reward good behavior, and punish bad.
#2 The science we learn in school is a collection of certainties about the natural world. However, each of these facts was hard won through a succession of logical inferences based on many observations or experiments.
#3 The IPCC has established a second set of calibrated terms to indicate confidence in a given finding. Confidence is a qualitative judgment that depends on the number, quality, and agreement of different lines of evidence. The five levels of confidence are Very high, High, Medium, Low, and Very low.
#4 The most prominent series of assessment reports is produced under the auspices of the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which was established in 1988. The IPCC issued its first assessment in 1990, and the Sixth Assessment Report is expected in the summer of 2021.
