Science and Data

Atmospheric carbon provides a lens to understand the big picture on climate change. Because it traps the sun’s energy, carbon in Earth’s atmosphere is a main contributor to global warming.

Through its National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) formerly known as National Climatic Data Center (NCDC), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) provides a wealth of information that documents the reality of climate change.
