- Richard Alley's Milankovich dance, explaining the ice ages, CO2 and global warming (5 min.)
- 130 years of historical global temperature change (1880-2011, NASA); 26 seconds
- Arctic sea ice retreat, 1980-2007, about 30 seconds
- “Time history of atmospheric CO2?; shows the earth “breathing” over 800 thousand years; about 3 minutes
- Trend and Variation; “Human walking an active dog on leash” metaphor for signal vs. noise in climate change (“We’re looking at the dog, but we should be concentrating on the owner…”); about 1 minute
- It’s All About Carbon; a series of roughly 3-minute cartoon shorts from PBS, explaining greenhouse gas science. (But as I recall, the "personal action" ending could have used refurbishing: it needs the POW pledge.)

New policy re climate contrarianism comments as of 11/11/2009:
Comments questioning the climate science community's understanding of climate change (97% of active climatologists now believe that the earth is currently warming and that it's human-caused - link) will be deleted unless the commenter:
a) is local
b) uses his real name
c) provides link(s) to substantiate his claim(s)/inference(s)
d) is willing to collaborate on constructing an argument tree, to get us past the usual sterile point-counterpoint-countercounterpoint.
(For people who can't read the above, a summary:
1) Be civil;
2) Don't post w/o giving at least a pseudonym;
3) Don't espouse climate-denial crankery unless you're local and willing to stand behind it.)
Caveats:
1. Comments could be delayed: they are being moderated, and I'm sometimes away from the computer for a day or more.
2. : Perfectly legitimate comments are sometimes miscategorized (by the blogging platform) as spam, & not published. If this happens to yours, please notify me, else I might not notice for a day or two.
