Fifteenth online page shows teacher introducing scientist who studies ocean acidification - she sitting in a kayak with view of sea life - describes who's involved in IPCC
Dialogue:
Normally, it took years or decades of many different scientists exploring different lines of evidence; all experimenting, testing, publishing in scientific journals, before a theory could be accepted as fact.
As I said earlier, the IPCC reports summed up what the science was showing through tens of thousands of published papers.
But it took scientists to write the IPCC assessment reports, too.
Dr Akvo, can you tell us about that?
Hi kids, I’m a scientist who studies the acidity of the oceans because carbon dioxide causing climate change also makes seawater more acidic.
Before the IPCC can write a report, the authors have to be chosen.
Governments could suggest scientists to be report authors.
But observer organizations could also nominate experts.
There were more than 100 observer organizations, including business groups and public interest organizations.
