[|Here is the latest IPCC report on climate change], this is the summary put together for policymakers Your job today is to read through it, skim over the stuff that is not relevant to our studies in this class, then I would like you to create a document in your folder that you shared with me, name it something like "IPCC 2014 report", and create a list of some key things from the report that stood out for you. You may cut and paste from the report, as long as you put the selection in quotes and then list the page from the report it came from, and why you chose it.
