Physics for Future Presidents and climate change

Recent update: UC Berkeley has issued an independent analysis of the temperature data noted in this news report on World land temperature rise from Bits of Science. The Berkeley data concur with NASA and NOAA and HadCRU from the UK showing a 1 degree temperature rise since the 1970s. 



Richard Mueller is a Physics professor at UC Berkley.  His lecture series on Physics for Future Presidents is available online through YouTube. This lecture below focuses on climate change.


His book Physics for Future Presidents is very accessible guide for the general public covering nuclear issues and energy policy.  He has a companion text book for classes Physics and Technology for Future Presidents.  Information on both can be found at Mueller books.  Warning the link is visually dull but the content is informative.
