This online course takes a quantitative approach to the science of global warming and enables participants to understand the greenhouse effect, the planet's carbon cycle, and how burning fossil fuel affects that cycle; and to evaluate the potential severity of humans' impact on Earth's climate. Intended for non-specialists, this course starts with basic principles and builds to more complicated, realistic models of the Earth's climate.
