SCIENCE

At Easter Planet, we believe in fact over opinion and recommend people carry out their own research to make up their own minds.  There is a vast amount of information available on the internet, and we will list just a few for starters. 

Because we believe in science, the first link we provide on this page, is to a list of 198 recognised International Scientific Organisations that hold the position that Climate Change is being caused by human action. There are plenty of other similar lists on the web.

​

One of our favourite sources for information in that list is NASA and its page on Scientific Consensus: Earth's Climate Is Warming .  Also on the NASA site, have a look at the shrinking North Pole ice cap .

Also on the NASA website is great information for kids (and adults) that make understanding climate change a lot easier.

​

Another of our favourite sources of information is the Smithsonian Institute, the world's largest museum and research complex, with 19 museums, 9 research centres, and affiliates around the world, see the Smithsonian Statement on Climate Change

There is a mountain of information available from the Smithsonian, and one of the best documents is here, 

Climate Change Research at the Smithsonian: Some Examples

​

Of course, we shouldn't forget Australia's CSIRO research into climate change.   There is a great document - State of the Climate 2020, which provides an easy to understand view of where Australia is positioned with climate change.

​

For balance, we have tried, without luck, to locate a similar list of recognised scientific bodies that don’t support or agree with the theory of man-made climate change.  In the absence of any, we found instead that organisations that do not support the theory, are typically lobby groups or political affiliates.

Here is a link to one article listing some US organisations that do not necessarily support the theory of man-made climate change; https://www.ucsusa.org/resources/global-warming-skeptic-organizations

Make up your own mind.
