What is the most convincing argument for climate change that you give in answer to climate change sceptics? Particularly to those people who are semi well informed (i.e. who know that it used to be hotter than modern times in the past)

Also, do you get to use your cartoon skills to draw diagrams in scientific papers?

I am an earth scientist and did plenty of courses on climate change when I was at university. I was taught by some of the people who have made the biggest contributions to our understanding of how we affect our planet. One resource that we were given was the IPCC report

It's a report made by scientists and is designed to be as factual and unbiased as possible. It's written to be understood by non scientists so shouldn't be too confusing to a beginner. See what you think :)
