The Scientific Paper was distributed on Wednesday Mar. 7.  Reports are due by Friday Mar. 30.  An X in front of your name means I have received your report.

The paper that you will be reading is a summary and discussion of climate change research results issued in 2001 by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).  If you have been following the news on this subject you may be aware that the IPCC has just issued an updated report.  I had originally planned to give you a copy of the 2007 report, but I found it was a little more difficult to read and understand.  If you would like to read and report on the 2007 report (instead of the 2001 report) you are free to do so.  You can either download the report yourself (http://www.ipcc.ch/SPM2feb07.pdf) or ask me and I will provide you with a copy.  You can also base the majority of your report on the 2001 summary and include some of the new results from the 2007 report.
