课程简介

课程名称:气候变化是什么? 概述:在本课程中,学习者将熟悉表明人类活动导致气候变化的科学证据。我们将探讨温室气体如何导致地球变暖,以及为何我们近期的变暖归因于人类活动。课程还将讨论气候的未来走向,包括预期的温度、降水和海平面变化。学习者将参与这些变化对生态系统、基础设施和社区的影响的讨论。此外,我们还将识别政治信仰如何影响我们对气候变化的态度,并运用这些知识成为更好的气候传播者。 课程大纲: 1. **气候系统与气候变化** - 描述:气候变化是事实。科学家们一致认为,人类活动正在导致气候变化。21世纪的变暖将持续,而变暖程度将由我们的温室气体排放决定。 2. **气候变化的影响** - 描述:气候变化对生态系统、基础设施和社区的总体影响预计将是负面的。许多影响已经显现,我们预计未来的变暖将加剧这些影响的程度。 3. **对气候变化的态度** - 描述:了解气候变化的重要信息来源至关重要,同时有必要理解科学信息与其他类型知识的独特性。此外,人们对气候问题的观点常常受到政治派别的影响。在与他人讨论气候问题时,需要考虑受众的关切和世界观,量身定制信息传播的方式。

课程大纲

Name:The Climate System and Climate Change

Description:Climate change is real. Scientists agree that human activities are causing the climate to change. Warming will continue in the 21st century, and the amount of warming will be determined by our emissions of greenhouse gases.

Name:Impacts of Climate Change

Description:The net impact of climate change on ecosystems, infrastructure, and communities is expected to be negative. Many impacts are already occurring, and we expect future warming to exacerbate their effects.

Name:Attitudes About Climate Change

Description:To stay informed about climate change, it is important to know where to get credible information. It’s also important to understand how scientific information is unique from other types of knowledge. Also, it can be helpful to recognize that others’ opinions on climate are heavily influenced by political affiliation. When engaging with others on climate, information needs to be tailored to take into account your audiences concerns and world views.

课程详情

In this course, learners will become familiar with the scientific evidence that demonstrates human-caused climate change. We will explore how greenhouse gases cause the Earth to warm, and why our recent warming is attributed to human activities. We will also discuss where our climate is headed, including anticipated future temperature, precipitation, and sea level. Learners will engage with the consequences of these changes on our ecosystems, infrastructure, and communities. We will also identify how political beliefs influence our attitudes about climate change, and apply that knowledge to become better climate communicators.
